case:loc: postpositional localizer

We treat a closed set of postpositions (traditionally known as “improper adpositions”) as localizers. See ADP for a list of localizers.

A localizer is attached either to the noun it follows or directly to the main verb of the clause. Localizers are always tagged ADP. When a localizer follows a noun and functions as its adposition, it is attached to the noun with the case:loc relation. When it occurs independently as an adverbial modifier of a verb, it is attached directly to the predicate with the obl relation, while retaining the ADP tag.
