话语标记语（“线索词”）是表示相邻文本跨度之间保持的连贯关系的词汇;例如，因为，因为和因为这个原因是因果关系的不同标记。话语标记语是一组在句法上具有很大异质性的词，其中许多传统上被视为属于语法领域而不是词汇领域的功能词。但对于一个单一的话语关系，往往有一组相似的标记，允许一系列的释义来表达关系。为了捕捉这些之间的相似性和差异，并充分表示它们，我们正在开发DiMLex，话语标记语词典。在描述了我们的方法和DiMLex中要表示的信息类型之后，我们简要地讨论了它在文本生成和理解中的潜在应用。
Discourse markers ('cue words') are lexical items that signal the kind of coherence relation holding between adjacent text spans; for example, because, since, and for this reason are different markers for causal relations. Discourse markers are a syntactically quite heterogeneous group of words, many of which are traditionally treated as function words belonging to the realm of grammar rather than to the lexicon. But for a single discourse relation there is often a set of similar markers, allowing for a range of paraphrases for expressing the relation. To capture the similarities and differences between these, and to represent them adequately, we are developing DiMLex, a lexicon of discourse markers. After describing our methodology and the kind of information to be represented in DiMLex, we briefly discuss its potential applications in both text generation and understanding.
