Split Sentences

Some sentences are split on a page in such a way that a computer might have trouble guessing where it ends.

For example:
'A sentence may begin normally, then morph into a list of things, namely
1. Item 1
2. Item 2
3. Item 3
before coming to an end.'

To parse this sentence properly, you need to indicate the start and end of a sentence unequivocally. This can be done by using opening and closing tags which have no visual effect, like so:

<sentence>In this example, it is clear where the sentence starts and ends, even though it may be split into two with a list, namely
1. Item 1
2. Item 2
3. Item 3
before coming to an end.</sentence>
