kontextusjelöl

Kontextusjelöl is a Hungarian term coined to describe an annotation or tag attached to a unit of text that signals its contextual function within a larger discourse. It refers to the explicit labeling of situational information that can affect interpretation or processing, such as speaker identity, discourse status, time, modality, topic, or referential context. The term is used in discussions about annotation schemes and is not universally standardized; different projects may define different values and levels of granularity.

Implementation and formats vary. Context labels can be encoded as inline markers, separate metadata, or sidecar annotations. Common approaches include simple bracketed labels, XML-like tags, JSON annotations, or annotation graphs. The essential requirement is consistent application across a corpus to support reliable analysis.

Relation to other concepts is important. Kontextusjelöl complements linguistic annotations like part-of-speech tagging, semantic role labeling, or discourse markers. It is particularly useful in multilingual natural language processing, where contextual cues influence translation and interpretation, and in corpus linguistics for examining how context shapes meaning.

Applications and use cases include improving disambiguation, guiding machine translation, and enabling finer-grained discourse analysis. Challenges include achieving cross-project interoperability, avoiding annotation bias, and establishing clear, shared semantics for each kontextusjelöl value.
