Three different annotations of linguistic structure for the Dutch translation of the sentence the boy will help his sister with her homework. (A) Schematic illustration of the three different timescales of the linguistic units of information (phrases, words, and syllables) contained in the sentence. From the annotation of these timescales, we derived frequency bands for each linguistic unit. (B) Phrase-level annotation, where words that integrate a phrase are coded as 1 for their entire duration, while all other words are coded as 0 (bracket presence). (C) Phrase-level annotation, where the value assigned to each word corresponds to the number of phrases that the word integrates (bracket count).
