A Complex Example

Combinations of the above types of words can yield more complex examples. Example 8–11 shows two words in a hierarchy, one of which is inverse. This example has the interesting adjudication effect that if the inverse word (word13) is combined with any label that does not contain the word, the result is that the inverse word is replaced by the word above it in the hierarchy (word14). Because word13 is inverse, bit 9 must be specified as 1 in the initial marking bits. name= word14; markings= 8 9;

Example 8–11 Two Words in Hierarchy with Inverse Word

name= word13;  markings= 8 ~9; 

Appendix B, Annotated Sample Encodings contains the following examples of complex information label words similar to this example: bravo4, which is an inverse word below bravo2 in a hierarchy.
