nmod:prep: prepositional pronouns

nmod:prep, used for prepositional pronouns, is a UD Irish subtype of the nmod relation:

16 of the most common Irish simple prepositions can be inflected to mark pronominal objects. These are referred to as pronominal prepositions or prepositional pronouns. We regard these as playing nominal modifier roles instead of prepositional modifier roles. We introduce the language-specific label nmod:prep so as not to lose information regarding the presence of the preposition.

Examples

agam “at me”; leis “with him”, uainn “from us”

D’inis mé di `I told her’

Is dóigh leis go bhfuil páirtíocht acu lena chéile `He believes that they have a partnership together’

Níl fhios agam `I don’t know’
