Document Summary
Branch: a line connecting two parts of a tree. Node: labelled end of a branch: branching: two or more branches below it, non-branching: single branch below it. Label: the name given to a node. Root node: the first node at the top of the tree with no line on top of it. Terminal nodes (preliminary): any node with no branch underneath it. Non-terminal node (preliminary): any node with a branch underneath it. Structural relations: relationships that occur between the parts of a tree. Domination (in terms of the vertical axis of syntactic trees) some nodes are higher in the tree than others, reflecting the hierarchy or constituents. Domination: node a dominates node b if and only if a is higher up in the tree than b and if you can trace a line from a to b going downwards; essentially a containment relation. Exhaustive domination: node a exhaustively dominates a set of terminal nodes.
