| corresp | (corresponds) points to elements that correspond to the current element in some way.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace | <group>

</group> In this example a group contains two texts, each containing the same document in a different language. The correspondence is indicated using corresp. The language is indicated using xml:lang, whose value is inherited; both the tag with the corresp and the tag pointed to by the corresp inherit the value from their immediate parent. |
<place xml:id="LOND1"
corresp="people.xml#LOND2 people.xml#GENI1">
<placeName>London</placeName>
<desc>The city of London...</desc>
</place>
<person xml:id="LOND2"
corresp="places.xml#LOND1 #GENI1">
<persName type="lit">London</persName>
<note>
<p>Allegorical character representing the city of <placeName ref="places.xml#LOND1">London</placeName>.</p>
</note>
</person>
<person xml:id="GENI1"
corresp="places.xml#LOND1 #LOND2">
<persName type="lit">London’s Genius</persName>
<note>
<p>Personification of London’s genius. Appears as an
allegorical character in mayoral shows.
</p>
</note>
</person>
In this example, a place element containing information about the city of London is linked with two person elements in a literary personography. This correspondence represents a slightly looser relationship than the one in the preceding example; there is no sense in which an allegorical character could be substituted for the physical city, or vice versa, but there is obviously a correspondence between them. |

| synch | (synchronous) points to elements that are synchronous with the current element.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace |
|
| sameAs | points to an element that is the same as the current element. |
| copyOf | points to an element of which the current element is a copy.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | teidata.pointer | | Note | Any content of the current element should be ignored. Its true content is that of the element being pointed at. |
|
| next | points to the next element of a virtual aggregate of which the current element is part.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | teidata.pointer | | Note | It is recommended that the element indicated be of the same type as the element bearing this attribute. |
|
| prev | (previous) points to the previous element of a virtual aggregate of which the current element is part.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | teidata.pointer | | Note | It is recommended that the element indicated be of the same type as the element bearing this attribute. |
|
| exclude | points to elements that are in exclusive alternation with the current element.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace |
|
| select | selects one or more alternants; if one alternant is selected, the ambiguity or uncertainty is marked as resolved. If more than one alternant is selected, the degree of ambiguity or uncertainty is marked as reduced by the number of alternants not selected.| Status | Optional | | Datatype | 1–∞ occurrences of teidata.pointer separated by whitespace | | Note | This attribute should be placed on an element which is superordinate to all of the alternants from which the selection is being made. |
