ab: Summary: In this paper we propose a dialogue act annotation system allowing
    ranking of communicative functions of utterances in terms of their
    perceived importance. It is argued that multidimensional dialogue act
    annotation schemes, while allowing more than one tag per utterance,
    implicitly treat all functions as equally important. Consequently, they
    fail to capture the fact that in a given context some of the functions
    of an utterance may have a higher priority than its other functions.
    The present approach tries to improve on this deficiency. The results
    of an annotation experiment suggest that ranking communicative
    functions accurately reflects the communicative competence of language
    users.
