advmod: adverb modifier

The dependency type advmod is used for adverb modifiers of verbs, nominals and adverbs alike.

Hän käveli kotiin hitaasti . \n He walked home slowly .
nsubj(käveli-2, Hän-1)
nmod(käveli-2, kotiin-3)
advmod(käveli-2, hitaasti-4)
punct(käveli-2, .-5)
Minä otin kaapista myös vasaran . \n I took from_closet also hammer .
nsubj(otin-2, Minä-1)
nmod(otin-2, kaapista-3)
dobj(otin-2, vasaran-5)
advmod(vasaran-5, myös-4)
punct(otin-2, .-6)

Also quantification modifiers are annotated as adverb modifiers in UD Finnish (correspond to quantmod in the original Stanford Dependencies and the Turku Dependency Treebank). Quantification modifiers are quantifiers that modify a numerical expression. Typically quantifiers are adverbs, but also few adjectives are allowed as quantifiers.

Alue oli suuruudeltaan noin kymmenen neliökilometriä . \n The_area was of_its_size about ten square_kilometres .
nsubj:cop(neliökilometriä-6, Alue-1)
cop(neliökilometriä-6, oli-2)
nmod(neliökilometriä-6, suuruudeltaan-3)
advmod(kymmenen-5, noin-4)
nummod(neliökilometriä-6, kymmenen-5)
punct(neliökilometriä-6, .-7)
