Function Word Markers (+)

As a function word are mainly those words marked that cannot be inflected, i.e. all pronouns, articles, prepositions, conjunctions and adverbs; in addition all forms of the so-called copula verbs 'haben' (to have) and 'sein' (to be).


Not marked should be adverbs that are at the same time basic forms of adjectives.

Example: über Q'y:b6+
  abends Q'a:b@nts+
  bin b'In+
  den d'e:n+
  etwas Q'Etvas+
  ihre Q'i:r@+
  irgendwann Q'I6g@ntv'an+
  normalerweise nO6m'a:l6vaIz@+
  sondern z'Ond6n+
  und Q'Unt+
  werden v'e:6d@n+
     
  But:  
     
  kurz kU6ts
  täglich t'E:klIC
As here the marker (+) comes after the transcribed unit there will be no overlaps with the morpheme markers (see also Morpheme Markers).
