+  <h3>Simple Segments</h3>
+  <p>The atomic elements of CQP queries are segments. Most of the time,
+    segments represent words and can be queried by encapsulating them in
+    qoutes or double quotes:</p>
+
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simplesquote', "** 'Tree'")
+  
+  <p>or</p>
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simpledquote', '** "Tree"')
+
+  <p>A word segment is always interpreted as a <%= embedded_link_to 'doc', 'regular expressions', 'ql', 'regexp' %>, e.g., a query like</p>
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_re', '** "r(u|a)n"'), cutoff => 1
+
+  %# <p>can return both "Tannenbaum" and "baum".</p>
+
+  <p>Sequences of simple segments are expressed using a space delimiter:</p>
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simpleseq1', '** "the" "Tree"')
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simpleseq2', "** 'the' 'Tree'")
+
+  %# ------------------- Current state (ND)
+  
+  <p>Originally, CQP was developped as a corpus query processor tool and
+    any CQP command had to be followed by a semicolon. <%= ext_link_to 'The CQPweb server', "https://cqpweb.lancs.ac.uk/" %> at
+    Lancaster treats the semicolon as optional, and we implemented it in
+    the same way.</p>
+  <p>Simple segments always refer to the surface form of a word. To search
+    for surface forms without case sensitivity, you can use the <code>%c</code>
+    flag:</p>
+
+  
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simplescflag', '"laufen"%c'), cutoff => 0
+
+
+
+  <p>The query above will find all occurrences of the term irrespective of
+    the capitalization of letters.</p>
+
+  <p>Diacritics is not been supported yet.</p>
+  
+  <!-- EM 
+  <p>To ignore diacritics, you can use the <code>%d</code> flag:</p>
+
+  
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simplesidia2', '"Fraulein"%d'), cutoff => 0
+
+
+
+  <p>The query above will find all occurrences of the term irrespective of
+    the use of diacritics (i.e., <code>Fräulein</code> and <code>Fraulein</code>).</p>
+
+  <p>Flags can be combined to ignore bose case sensitivity and diacritics:</p>
+
+  
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_simplesegidia2', '"Fraulein"%cd'), cutoff => 0
+
+  <p>The query above will find all occurrences of the term irrespective of
+    the use of diacritics or of capitalization: <code>fraulein</code>, <code>Fraulein</code>,
+    <code>fräulein</code>, etc.</p>

+
+  <h4 id="regexp">Regular Expressions</h4>
+        <p>Special regular expressions characters like <code>.</code>, <code>?</code>,
+          <code>*</code>, <code>+</code>, <code>|</code>, <code>(</code>, <code>)</code>,
+          <code>[</code>, <code>]</code>, <code>{</code>, <code>}</code>, <code>^</code>,

+        <ul>
+          <li><code>"?";</code> fails while <code>"\?";</code> returns <code>?.</code></li>
+          <li><code>"."</code> returns any character, while <code>"\$\."</code>

+        <h3>Complex Segments</h3>
+        <p>Complex segments are expressed in square brackets and contain
+          additional information on the resource of the term under scrutiny by
+          providing key/value pairs, separated by an equal-sign.</p>
+        <p>The KorAP implementation of CQP provides three special segment keys:
+          <code>orth</code> for surface forms, <code>base</code> for lemmata,
+          and <code>pos</code> for Part-of-Speech. The following complex query
+          finds all surface forms of the defined word:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compsl1', '[orth="Baum"]'), cutoff => 0
+
+
+        <p>The query is thus equivalent to:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compsl2', '"Baum"'), cutoff => 0
+
+
+        <p>Complex segments expect simple expressions as values, meaning that
+          the following expression is valid as well:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compsse', '[orth="l(au|ie)fen"%c]'), cutoff => 1
+
+
+        <p>Another special key is <code>base</code>, refering to the lemma
+          annotation of the <%= embedded_link_to 'doc', 'default foundry', 'data', 'annotation'%>. The following query finds all occurrences of segments
+          annotated as a specified lemma by the default foundry:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compsbase', '[base="Baum"]'), cutoff => 1
+
+
+        <p>The third special key is <code>pos</code>, refering to the
+          part-of-speech annotation of the <%= embedded_link_to 'doc', 'default foundry', 'data', 'annotation'%>. The following query finds all attributive adjectives:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compspos', '[pos="ADJA"]'), cutoff => 1
+
+
+        <p>Complex segments requesting further token annotations can have keys
+          following the <code>foundry/layer</code> notation. For example to
+          find all occurrences of plural words in a supporting foundry, you can
+          search using the following queries:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compstoken1', '[marmot/m="number":"pl"]'), cutoff => 1
+
+
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compstoken2', "[marmot/m='tense':'pres']"), cutoff => 1
+
+
+        <p>In case an annotation contains special non-alphabetic and non-numeric
+          characters, the annotation part can be followed by <code>%l</code> to
+          ensure a verbatim interpretation:</p>
+        
+  %= doc_query cqp => loc('Q_cqp_compstokenverb', "[orth='https://de.wikipedia.org'%l]"), cutoff => 1
+
+
+        <h4>Negation</h4>
+        <p>Negation of terms in complex expressions can be expressed by
+          prepending the equal sign or the whole expression with an exclamation
+          mark.</p>

+        <p>Not all segments are bound to words - some are bound to concepts
+          spanning multiple words, for example noun phrases, sentences, or
+          paragraphs. Span segments are structural elements and they have
+          specific syntax in different contexts. When used in complex segments,
+          they need to be searched by using angular brackets :

+        <h3>Paradigmatic Operators</h3>
+        <p>A complex segment can have multiple properties a token requires. For

+
+
+        Round brackets can also be used to encapsulate simple segments, to

+          segments in a specific position in a bigger structure like a noun
+          phrase or a sentence.</p>
+        <p>To search for a word at the beginning of a sentence (or a syntactic
+          group), the following queries are equivalent.
