Preliminary Recommendations

Comments

Articles constitute a separate category, as is found in many lexicons and annotation practices, even though, as already pointed out, in others (e.g. UPenn) they are found incorporated in the Determiner category.

The separation of the two categories is not a problem, since, as Articles form a very restricted closed class, they can also easily be distinguished from Determiners in the latter cases and no serious mapping problem arises.
