említend

említend is a term used in discourse analysis and annotation to designate elements that must be mentioned within a given discourse unit, such as a paragraph or a summary. It functions as a meta-informational marker indicating items that are considered essential for inclusion in reference or recap.

The word is constructed from the Hungarian verb említ, meaning to mention, with the participial suffix -end, yielding említend and conveying the sense "to be mentioned." In this context the term is typically used in multilingual annotation frameworks to label content that should be explicitly cited or recalled in subsequent discourse.

In practice, említend tags or labels are attached to sentences or phrases that researchers judge as mandatory for accurate understanding or faithful summarization. They are used in annotated corpora, information-structure studies, and automatic summarization workflows to flag salient or necessary points. The concept helps analyze how topics gain prominence and how discourse remains coherent when key items are guaranteed to appear in later sections or outputs.

Example usage might appear in a project report or meeting transcript where a line such as “the following items are említend for the final minutes: budget, milestones, and risks” indicates that these points should be explicitly referenced in a concluding section. The term remains niche and is primarily discussed in experimental annotation and theory-focused discourse literature rather than as a mainstream linguistic category.
