Abstract

Cue phrases are lexical units that carry various signals within discourse to phenomena such as discourse relation detection. Their characterization have been found to be helpful in practical Natural Language Processing systems including dialogue planning agents and text summarizers. A corpus based study of cue phrases in Turkish is to be presented. The results show that there is no significant tendency in sentences with cue phrases that have a noun full noun phrase subject to be followed by sentences with null subject sentences. Variations of this result is explained in the article.
