The other feature structure, the 'Right Pole', contains the syntactic units.

This use of labels should not, however, be confused with the actual status of the syntactic units to which the labels are attached.

The term distribution denotes the environments in a syntactic unit can appear.

They do not influence the basic commitment to dependency as the relation that is grouping syntactic units.

The values of such grammatical functions are two-(or more)-place relations among constituents of the syntactic unit.

The distributional behavior of syntactic units is identified by substitution.

The syntactic units of sentences are often either subordinate or coordinate to each other.

Thus anytime two syntactic units are in a head-dependent relationship, subordination obtains.

The largest syntactic unit is the sentence.

More recent studies of pause patterns in spontaneous speech have studied the relationship between pauses and syntactic units.
