	The UNL representation is a '''hyper-graph''', which means that it may consist of several interlinked or subordinate sub-graphs. These sub-graphs are represented as hyper-~~nodes~~ and correspond roughly to the concept of dependent (subordinate) clauses, i.e., groups of words that consist of a subject (explicit or implied) and a predicate and which are embedded in a larger structure (the independent clause). They are used to define the boundaries between complex semantic entities being represented.
