dislocated: dislocated elements
The dislocated relation is used for fronted or postposed elements that do not fulfill the usual core grammatical
relations of a sentence. Dislocated elements are attached to the same governor as the dependent that they double
for.
Peter , honom gillar jag inte \n Peter, I don't like him
dislocated(gillar, Peter)
dobj(gillar, honom)
A frequent case in Swedish is that of an adverbial clause resumed by the pronominal adverb så:
Släpper vi in britterna , så drar de med sig danskar \n If we let the Brits in they'll bring the Danish with them
dislocated(drar, Släpper)
advcl(drar, så)
In addition, the dislocated relation is used for the focus element in a cleft sentence. This is a slight
abuse of the relation, because the focus element is not a dislocated dependent of its syntactic head, but
rather of the predicate in the relative clause making up the second part of the cleft construction.
Det var Peter som gjorde det \n It was Peter who did it
dislocated(var, Peter)
expletive(var, Det)
acl:relcl(Peter, gjorde)
nsubj(gjorde, som)
dobj(gjorde, det)
