This is a type used in Stencila Schema for explicit sentence-level content.

It exists so documents can represent sentence boundaries structurally when that granularity matters for provenance, annotation, review, or natural-language tooling. This is more precise than inferring sentences from plain text after the fact.

Key properties include the sentence content and any associated authorship or provenance metadata.

Universal Dependencies sentence span: Close linguistic analogue for explicit sentence segmentation, though UD usually treats sentences as annotation spans rather than document-tree nodes.

Pandoc Span: Only an approximate Pandoc analogue; Pandoc has no dedicated sentence node and sentence boundaries are usually inferred.
