fixed: fixed multiword expression

The fixed relation is one of the three relations for multiword expressions (MWEs) (the other two being flat and compound). It is used for certain fixed grammaticized expressions that behave like function words or short adverbials.

In Bulgarian this relation applies to fixed complex conjunctions (like за да za da “in order to”), prepositions (в интерес на in interest of “in someone’s interest”), adverbs (може би mozhe bi “maybe”). It also applies to the reflexive structures of a long and short pronouns себе си sebe si “oneself”.

Той гледа себе си .
fixed(себе-3, си-4)
He takes_care_of him self .
fixed(him-3, self-4)
