orphan: remnant in ellipsis
The orphan relation is employed in cases of head ellipsis, i.e. where promotion results in an unnatural dependency because one of the core arguments is promoted to being head of the clause. Few examples of this have been observed in the Irish treebank thus far.
Examples
Tháinig riail chun cinn a choiscfeadh dath a chur ar dhath eile, nó miotal ar mhiotal eile. ‘A rule was introduced that would ban placing one colour over another, or one metal over another.’
