Roleset id: add.01 , say, vncls: 37.7, framnet: Statement

add.01: Member of Vncls say-37.7.

Roles:

        Arg0: speaker (vnrole: 37.7-agent)
        Arg1: utterance (vnrole: 37.7-topic)

Example: transitive

        But he adds, "I feel pressured, disappointed, uncomfortable, and angry."

        Argm-dis: But
        Arg0: he
        Rel: adds
        Arg1: "I feel pressured, disappointed, uncomfortable, and angry."

Example: fronted

        [That got hard to take]-1, he added *trace*-1.

        Arg0: he
        Rel: added
        Arg1: *trace*

Example: inverted

        unlike 'say', Treebank does not consistently assume a *trace* after 'add' linked to the utterance. Thus the Arg1 will show up on the trace, if it is present, otherwise on the utterance itself. Actually this is bad and if you see one without a trace, it's best to send it back as .ER.
        [The IRS is investigating lawyers]-2, added *trace*-2 Mr. Sonnett.

        Arg1: *trace*-2
        Rel: added
        Arg0: Mr. Sonnett

Example: split

        Remember: if the tree doesn't include a trace number that links back up to the main S node containing the whole proposition, you need to link the trace to the top S node via argM-DSP.
        [The bids, [he added *trace*-3]-PRN, were contrary to common sense]-3.

        Arg0: he
        Rel: added
        Arg1: *trace*-3
