obl:lvc: oblique nominal in a light-verb construction

For light verb constructions, we introduced the additional label lvc, which is appended to the normal dependency relation like obj:lvc, nsubj:lvc, obl:lvc etc.

“the apparatus of László Kövér took steps to substantiate the statement of the Prime Minister”

“it took place after the close of our first edition”

“Bond is fighting against time”

If the verbal part of the light-verb construction is a participle and syntactically it is used as an attribute of the nominal part, then the relation is reversed (analogously to ordinary participial attributes) and the relation amod:attlvc is used:

“during their visit to the Vatican in mid-November”


obl:lvc in other languages: [hu]
