Preliminary Recommendations

Finiteness

In general, finiteness is implicitly given by the particular tag of the verb-form occuring in the corpus, e.g. `skriver' is indicative present active which is a finite form. Thus, in corpus tagging, the distinction finite/non-finite is not needed. However, in the EUROTRA description of Danish, finite and non-finite forms have been distinguished.
