advcl
: adverbial clause modifier
An adverbial clause modifier is a clause which modifies a verb or other predicate (adjective, etc.), as a modifier not as a core complement. This includes things such as a temporal, consequence, purpose, conditional clauses, etc. The dependent must be clausal (or else it is an advmod) and the antecedent is the main predicate of the clause.
This relation is also used for optional adverbial predicatives like
που may introduce ascriptive relative clauses with a clause as antecedent (rather than a nominal): Πρέπει να κοιμήθηκα ένα δεκάωρο περίπου, που για μένα είναι το απόλυτο θαύμα. “It is likely that I slept for about 10 hours — which is an absolute miracle in my case.” Here, the clause introduced by που depends with the relation advcl:relcl on the clause headed by κοιμήθηκα “slept”.
