👉 In the context of computational linguistics, a "wrainstave" is a word that has a particular syntactic relationship with another word. For example, in a sentence like "I love to eat pizza," the word "love" and the word "pizza" have a kind of relationship where the former is a preposition that modifies the latter (e.g., "I ate pizza"). This relationship can be used to construct new sentences by changing the order or words within them.
