TAACO index calculations wrt adverbs

[Katie Grenon]

My research team is using TAACO for an analysis, and we plan to use the metric “adjacent_overlap_binary_2_adv_para.” Could you clarify the calculation? Specifically, what definition of “adnoun” is referenced in the TAACO 2.0.4 Index Spreadsheet? The metric labels use “adverb,” but the descriptions use “adnoun,” and it’s not clear to me whether you are using these terms interchangeably or whether “adnoun” might be referring more specifically and uniquely to adjectives used as nouns or, as mentioned in your 2019 manuscript, “an adjective describing a noun,” (but not a verb?).

Thank you for any information you can provide.

The two terms (adnoun and adverb) are used interchangeably here. We will work on making a correction later.

Thanks!
