Dependency Relations

nsubj

The nsubj denotes the noun phrase or pronoun that is the syntactic subject of the predicate. The subject NP always follow the predicate. When there is no subject NP present, the only pronoun preceding the predicate head, which can be verb, adjective, noun, or even number, gets the nsubj relation.

  • Example 1: The NP o Jone following the predicate of the subject clause la’o ('go') is in nsubj relation with the predicate la’o.
"<E>"
	"e" prn pers p3 sg subj @expl #1->2
"<sega>"
	"sega" vaux @root #2->0
"<ni>"
	"ni" rel @mark #3->4
"<la’o>"
	"la’o" vblex iv @csubj #4->2
"<o>"
	"o" art @det #5->6
"<Jone>"
	"Jone" np ant @nsubj #6->4
"<.>"
	"." sent @punct #7->2

'Jone is not going.' (Lit: 'It is not the case that John is going.')

  • Example 2: This sentence does not have a subject NP. The pronoun preceding the predicate head lesu ('return') is the subject of the clause, and thus gets nsubj
"<O>"
	"o" prn pers p2 sg subj1 @nsubj #1->2
"<lesu>"
	"lesu" vblex iv @root #2->0
"<mai>"
	"mai" pr @advmod #3->2
"<.>"
	"." sent @punct #4->2

'You return here.'

expl

A predicate head usually requires a subject pronoun preceding it. When there is a subject NP or subject clause with the same reference following the predicate, the subject pronoun gets the expl relation. When no subject NP nor subject clause is present, the subject pronoun preceding the predicate is not in expl but rather subj as described above. This use of expl corresponds to the second case of expletive relation listed on the UD relations website--true clitic doubling.

  • Example 1: The head of the NP dra’i is the subject of the predicate caa ('(to be) bad'), and so the pronoun e, referring to the a dra’i ('weather'), gets expl relation.
"<E>"
	"e" prn pers p3 sg subj @expl #1->3
"<rui>"
	"rui" adv @advmod #2->3
"<caa>"
	"caa" adj @root #3->0
"<a>"
	"a" art @det #4->5
"<dra’i>"
	"dra’i" n @nsubj #5->3
"<.>"
	"." sent @punct #6->3
  • Example 2:
"<La’o>"
	"la’o" vblex iv @root #1->0
"<o>"
	"o" art @det #2->3
"<ira>"
	"ra" prn pers p3 pl card1 @expl #3->1
