ccomp: clausal complement
A clausal complement of a verb or adjective is a dependent clause which is a core argument. That is, it functions like an object of the verb, or adjective.
Jis sako , kad tu mėgsti plaukti. \n He says that you like to-swim.
ccomp(sako, mėgsti)
ccomp(says, like)
The ccomp label is also used to mark the clausal complement of a complex verbal predicate when the subject of that complement clause is different from the subject of the matrix verb. In such cases, the embedded clause is analyzed as a full clause with its own subject. Contrast ccomp with xcomp: xcomp is used for an open clausal complement, i.e. a core argument of the main verb whose subject is controlled or shared (e.g. We started to dig). If the subject of the clausal complement is controlled (that is, must be the same as the higher subject or object, with no other possible interpretation) the appropriate relation is xcomp.
Viršininkas liepė pradėti kasti. \n The-boss ordered to-start digging.
ccomp(liepė, pradėti)
ccomp(ordered, to-start)
Aš siūlau valgyti dabar. \n I suggest eating now.
ccomp(siūlau, valgyti)
ccomp(suggest, eating)
