csubj:outer
: outer relative clause modifier
There are two constructions that use a copula and a relative clause modifier, ‘S ann and ‘S e.
csubj:outer
is relevant to ‘S ann.
- ‘S ann or Sann fronts adjectives, adverbs, APs, PPs and adverbial clauses.
This is then linked to the relative clause modifier by
csubj:cleft
except in the case where it is itself a clause with a subject. In that case we usecsubj:outer
instead.
Examples
- Cha b’ ann gus an do chaochail Lachlann Thorrloisg a b’ urrainn do neach a ràdh gun… “It was not until Lachlann Thorrloisg died that someone could say that…” (fp03_019, slightly edited)
