IN_RESIDUAL Prepositions (residual)

Definition

Prepositions with no subordinator subcategory tag. MFTE’s INother = IN tokens that have ONLY the IN tag, no additional tags appended.

Detection Rules

mfte

IN residual = prepositions minus subordinator categories. Uses count subtraction which may overcount if categories overlap.

Notes

MFTE converts remaining TO → IN after to-clause features are tagged, then tags subordinator types. INother is what remains untagged.
