rewriting rule 5: PROP&PROP as conj_VERB

[vcvpaiva]

_ <conj VERB.

some examples that seem correct:

1. A man is wearing a straw hat and smoking a cigarette
2. A bearded man is standing by a shopping cart and is holding a cardboard sign
3. Two girls are laughing and other girls are watching them
4. Two spectators are kickboxing and some people are watching
5. Two large persons are sitting on a park bench and they have a bottle of soda between them
6. The man is wearing a wetsuit and is riding a surfboard
7. Women are holding each other and dancing together
8. A girl is wearing jeans and a pink shirt and is running .
9. A man is standing on a roof top and playing a violin
10. a baby sneezed and scared another baby
11. A baby is sneezing and frightening another baby
12. Adults and children standing and playing in front of steps near a wooded area
13. There is no young child wearing a white coat and playing a game
14. The women are singing and dancing
15. A costumed performer is singing and people are dancing
16. There is no boy playing outdoors and there is no man smiling

difficult:
1.A large tennis ball is being used to teach a dog to run in the grass and catch it with its mouth
2. The man is playing the guitar and has the guitar case open for donations

some sentences don't make sense:

1. Nobody is on a motorcycle and is standing on the seat
2. There is no woman driving a car and talking to the man seated beside her
3. Three young men run , jump , and kick off of a Coke machine
4. There is no man standing in the middle of a gym and is wearing a jersey .

whenever we have a conjunction between verbs, we should annotate it in the dep label, as we will have to rewrite it.

e.g The women are singing and dancing

1 The the DET DT _ 2 det _ DT|?|?
2 women woman NOUN NNS _ 4 nsubj _ NNS|10787470-n|Woman=
3 are be VERB VBP _ 4 aux _ VBP|02604760-v|Entity+
4 singing sing VERB VBG _ 0 ROOT _ VBG|01731031-v|MakingVocalMusic=
5 and and CONJ CC _ 4 cc _ CC|?|?
6 dancing dance NOUN NN _ 4 conj _ VBG|01708676-v|Dancing+

should produce something like
cc_verb (dancing is not noun, but verb!), which needs to give us
The women are singing
and
The women are dancing

It seems that such issues of conjunctions are dealt with in the enhanced Dependencies of Stanford. All three problematic sentences referenced above, seem to be treated correctly:

1. A large tennis ball is being used to teach a dog to run in the grass and catch it with its mouth
2. The man is playing the guitar and has the guitar case open for donations
3. The women are singing and dancing

Thanks for the info @kkalouli !

have you seen stats in
https://github.com/own-pt/rte-sick/blob/master/expanded/conllu/all.conllu.stats.xml ?
they use the scripts for Dan Zeman in http://universaldependencies.org/tools.html#ud-maintained-tools
can you produce similar ones for enhanced dependencies?
