-%= doc_uc
+<p><%= doc_ext_link_to 'ANNIS Query Language (Annis QL or AQL)', "https://corpus-tools.org/annis/aql.html" %>
+ is a query language of the <%= doc_ext_link_to 'ANNIS corpus search system', "https://corpus-tools.org/annis/" %>
+ designed particularly to deal with complex linguistic corpora with multiple
+ annotation layers (e.g. morphology) and various annotation types (e.g. attribute-value
+ pairs, relations). The concept of AQL is similar to searching node elements and edges
+ between them, where a node element can be a token or an attribute-value pair.</p>
+
+<p>KorAP supports the following keywords by using the <%= doc_link_to 'default foundries', 'data', 'annotation' %>: </p>
+<dl>
+ <dt><code>node</code></dt>
+ <dd>a node element</dd>
+ <dt><code>tok</code></dt>
+ <dd>a token</dd>
+ <dt><code>cat</code> or <code>c</code></dt>
+ <dd>a constituent</dd>
+ <dt><code>lemma</code> or <code>l</code></dt>
+ <dd>a lemma annotated node</dd>
+ <dt><code>pos</code> or <code>p</code></dt>
+ <dd>a part-of speech annotated node</dd>
+ <dt><code>m</code></dt>
+ <dd>a morphologically annotated node</dd>
+</dl>
+
+<blockquote class="warning">
+ <p>KorAP does not support in-query metadata constraints in AQL yet, namely the prefix "meta::". In
+ KorAP, metadata constraints should be separated from search queries and be given as corpus
+ queries defining virtual corpora.</p>

+ <h3>Node elements</h3>
+
+ <p>Simple tokens</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"liebe"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <p>Attribute-value pairs</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => 'tok="liebe"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <p>Namespaces in AQL are realized as foundry and layer combinations in KorAP. They can be used
+ to query tokens having a specific layer annotated by a specific parser (foundry), for
+ example coordinating conjunctions (part-of-speech layer) from the TreeTagger foundry.</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => 'tt/p="KON"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <h3>Regular expressions</h3>
+ %= doc_query annis => 'tok =/m.*keit/', cutoff => 1
+
+ <h3>Sequence queries</h3>
+ <p>Two consecutive tokens</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"der"."Bär"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <p>Finite verbs indirectly followed by an adverb, where any number of tokens may occur in
+ between.</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => 'pos="VVFIN" .* pos="ADV"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <h3>Negation</h3>
+ <p>Negation, such as negated tokens, is only supported in KorAP in a sequence query. </p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"Katze" . pos != "VVFIN"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <h3>Pointing relations</h3>
+ <p>Pointing relations describe direct relationships between two node elements, for instance
+ dependency relations.</p>
+
+ <p>Querying all <code>"SUBJ"</code> dependency relations</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => 'node ->malt/d[func="SUBJ"] node', cutoff => 1
+
+ <p>Querying <code>"SUBJ"</code> dependency relations where the source node is token <code>"ich"</code></p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"ich" ->malt/d[func="SUBJ"] node', cutoff => 1
+
+ <p>Querying <code>"SUBJ"</code> dependency relations where the source node is token
+ <code>"ich"</code> and the target node is a perfect participle</p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"ich" ->malt/d[func="SUBJ"] pos="VVPP"', cutoff => 1
+
+ <h3>Using references</h3>
+ <p>Node elements may be refered to by using <code>#</code> and the position number of the element. For
+ instance, </p>
+ %= doc_query annis => '"ich" & pos="VVPP" & #1 ->malt/d[func="SUBJ"] #2', cutoff => 1
+ %= doc_query annis => '"ich" & pos="VVPP" & #1 . #2', cutoff => 1

+ <p>Unary operators like <code>arity</code> or <code>tokenarity</code> are not yet implemented in KorAP.</p>
+ </blockquote>
+
+
+ <!-- Not implemented in Krill yet
+
+ <h3>Unary operators</h3>

+ <p>Querying adverbial phrases having exactly 2 direct childeren</p>
+ <p>cat="AVP" & #1:arity=2</p>

+ <dl>Tokenarity</dl>
+ <dt>the number of tokens within a node</dt>
+ <p>Querying adverbial phrases consisting of exactly 2 tokens</p>
+ <p>cat="AVP" & #1:tokenarity=2</p>
+
+ <h3>Searching within a tree</h3>
+ <h4>Dominance</h4>
+ <p>AQL describes hierarchical relations between nodes in a tree as a concept of dominance.
+ Node A dominates node B when A is located in a higher position than node B in a tree.
+ Moreover, A <strong>directly dominates</strong> B when A is located exactly above B
+ without any other nodes in between.</p>
