compound:nn: noun compound modifier

The dependency type compound:nn, which stands for noun compound modifier has one use in the Moksha UD scheme. It is used for linking non-inflecting proper nouns to their inflecting appellations. Appellations may be titles or even concepts, e.g., ‘professor’, ‘fellow’, ‘town’, ‘river’, ‘event’, etc. Contrary to the appos relation, the compound:nn relation goes right to left, and only the second element declines.

Here is the first example:


compound:nn in other languages: [fi] [kpv] [mdf] [myv] [olo] [sme]
