### Candidate expressions
There are two types of candidates for a potential annotation:
- (1) single token or sequence of tokens that the annotator perceives potentially as the name of an entity of semantic type PERSON, ORGANIZATION, LOCATION, HUMAN PRODUCT or EVENT
- (2) a sequence of several tokens, whose meaning is at first sight obtained idiosyncratically and/or for which there components cannot vary freely (at the morphological or lexical level, substitutions that are normally possible are not acceptable for this sequence, or produce an unexpected change of meaning)
- (2) a sequence of several tokens, whose meaning is at first sight obtained idiosyncratically and/or for which the components cannot vary freely (at the morphological or lexical level, substitutions that are normally possible are not acceptable for this sequence, or produce an unexpected change of meaning)
Note for some candidates, it might be unclear at the beginning whether they will be tagged as named entity or MWE, and what is their exact span. The annotators should decide using the decision tree.
