Agreement - grambank/grambank GitHub Wiki

When an element A (e.g. an adnominal demonstrative) is marked for a property C inherent to another element B (e.g. plural number of a noun), A shows agreement with B in C. C does not have to be overtly marked on A for this situation to be called agreement. An adnominal adjective can, for example, agree with its head noun in gender, or a verb can agree with one of its arguments in number.
