nmod: nominal modifier

The nmod relation is used for nominal modifiers. They depend either on another noun (group “noun dependents”) or on a predicate (group “non-core dependents of clausal predicates”).

nmod is a noun (or noun phrase) functioning as a non-core (oblique) argument or adjunct. This means that it functionally corresponds to an adverbial when it attaches to a verb, adjective or other adverb. But when attaching to a noun, it corresponds to an attribute, or genitive complement.

οι άθλοι του Ηρακλή.Gen
nmod(άθλοι, Ηρακλή.Gen)
γεμάτη λαχτάρα κρεμιέται
nmod(γεμάτη, λαχτάρα)
advcl(κρεμιέται, γεμάτη)

The nmod relation can be further specified by the case label assigned to prepositions.

είδα τις ανταποκρίσεις για το συμβάν
nmod(ανταποκρίσεις, συμβάν)
case(συμβάν, για)
