xcomp:pred: predicate

We extend the label xcomp as a UD Irish subtype xcomp:pred to mark predicates of the substantive verb bí (be), which can have predicate arguments in the form of adverbial, adjectival and prepositional phrases. Note that this differs from Irish (cop) constructions.

Examples

Bhí sé dochreidte go raibh sé fós beo `It was unbelieveable that he was still alive’

Adjectival Predicate
