In informal texts people tend to use “&” as a substitute for “and”. Why is “&” not tagged as “CC” like “and” is?
@Mike_Unwalla do you have an opinion?
Example where this causes a false alarm:
The rule HE_VERB_AGR has an exception for “CC” but not for “&”
Why is “&” not tagged as “CC” like “and” is?
Don’t know.
I added a POS for the ampersand character )[en] Add POS CC for '&' · languagetool-org/languagetool@76fa6fa · GitHub).
