Liaison identifies a possibly fragmented segment of text, by pointing at the possibly discontiguous elements which compose it. 텍스트를 구성하고 있는 비연소적 요소를 가리킴으로 텍스트의 파편화된 분절을 식별한다. 標明文本中可能的不完整分割，指向構成此不完整分割的可能不連接元素。 バラバラにあるテキスト部分を参照し，ひとつのテキスト部分を指定する． identifie un segment de texte, qui peut être fragmenté, en pointant vers les éléments éventuellement dispersés qui le composent. identifica un segmento o fragmento de texto señalando eventuales elementos no contiguos que lo componen. identifica un segmento o frammento di testo puntando ad eventuali elementi non contigui che lo compongono specifies the identifiers of the elements or passages to be joined into a virtual element. 가상 요소로 결합될 수 있는 요소 또는 단락의 확인소를 명시한다. 標明與一個虛擬元素相連結的元素或段落識別符碼。 仮想要素へとまとめられる要素または一節の識別子を示す． spécifie les identifiants des éléments ou des passages qui doivent être réunis dans un élément virtuel. especifica los identificadores de los elementos o fragmentos de texto a enlazar en un elemento virtual. specifica gli identificatori degli elementi o porzioni di testo da collegare in un elemento virtuale two or more pointers (URIs), separated by whitespace specifies the name of an element which this aggregation may be understood to represent. 이 집합체의 표상으로 이해될 수 있는 요소의 이름을 명시한다. 指出一個推斷該元素集合所代表的元素名稱。 当該要素によりまとめられる要素名を示す． spécifie le nom d'un élément que cette agrégation semble représenter. indica el nombre del elemento representado por el conjunto de identificadores en cuestión. indica il nome dell'elemento rappresentato dall'insieme di identificatori in questione The generic identifier of an element in the current DTD. indicates whether the targets to be joined include the entire element indicated (the entire subtree including its root), or just the children of the target (the branches of the subtree). 결합된 대상이 제시된 전체 요소(그 뿌리를 포함하는 전체 하부수형도) 또는 대상의 자식노드(하부수형도의 가지)의 포함 여부를 제시한다. 指出被連結的目標是否包含所指元素的完整部份 (完整樹狀圖包含根節點) ，或僅包含該目標的子元素 (樹狀分支部份) 。 まとめられる対象が，要素全体(すなわち当該要素をルートとする部分 木全体)，またはその子要素(すなわち部分木の枝)であるかどうかを示 す． indique si les cibles à réunir incluent l'intégralité de l'élément indiqué (le sous-arbre entier y compris sa racine) ou seulement les enfants de la cible (les branches du sous-arbre). especifica si las metas a enlazar incluyen el elemento entero indicado (el árbol entero con la raíz inclusive) o sólo los elementos que tienen como padre la misma meta (las ramas del árbol). specifica se le destinazioni da collegare includono l'intero elemento indicato (l'intero albero compresa la radice) oppure solo gli elementi che hanno come genitore la stessa destinazione (i rami dell'albero) root the rooted subtrees indicated by the targets attribute are joined, each subtree become a child of the virtual element created by the join 대상 속성에 의해 지시된 한 뿌리에 대한 하부수형도가 결합되고, 각 하부수형도는 결합에 의해 생성된 실제 요소의 자식 노드가 된다. 由屬性target所指明、具根節點的樹狀圖彼此連結，每個樹狀圖成為該連結所產生之虛擬元素的子元素。 las subárboles arraigados indicados por los atributos targets 属性で示された根付き部分木がまとめられ，各部分木は，当該要素 で作られた仮想要素の子となる． les sous-arbres fils de la racine désignés par l'attribut targets sont liés, chaque sous-arbre devient un fils de l'élément virtuel créé par la jointure. gli alberi dotati di radice e indicati dall'attributo delle destinazioni sono collegati e ogni albero diventa un discendente dell'elemento virtuale ottenuto dal collegamento the children of the subtrees indicated by the targets attribute become the children of the virtual element (i.e. the roots of the subtrees are discarded) 대상 속성에 의해 지시된 하부수형도의 자식은 실제 요소의 자식이 된다.(즉, 하부수형도의 뿌리는 없어진다) 由屬性target所指明的樹狀圖的子元素成為虛擬元素的子元素 (例如捨去樹狀圖的根節點) 。 los hijos de los sub-árboles indicados por el atributo de los target se inician con los hijos del elemento virtual (es decir, las raíces de los sub-árboles se desechan) 属性で示された部分木の子は，仮想要素の子となる(すなわち，当 該部分木の根は捨てられる． les fils des sous-arbres désignés par l'attribut targets deviennent les fils de l'élément virtuel (c'est-à-dire que les racines des sous-arbres disparaissent). i discendenti degli alberi indicati dall'attributo delle destinazioni diventano i discendenti dell'elemento virtuale (cioè vengono rimosse le radici dei vari alberi)

The following example is discussed in section :

Dewey

... It's a new pond.

The join element here identifies a linegroup (lg) comprising the three lines indicated by the targets attribute. The value root for the scope attribute indicates that the resulting virtual element contains the three l elements linked to at #frog_l1 #frog_l2 #frog_l3, rather than their character data content.

In this example, the attribute scope is specified with the value of branches to indicate that the virtual list being constructed is to be made by taking the lists indicated by the targets attribute of the join element, discarding the list tags which enclose them, and combining the items contained within the lists into a single virtual list:

Southern dialect (my own variety, at least) has only I done goneI done went whereas Negro Non-Standard basilect has both these and I done go.

White Southern dialect also has I've done goneI've done went which, when they occur in Negro dialect, should probably be considered as borrowings from other varieties of English.
