acl:relcl: relative clause modifier

A relative clause modifier of a nominal is a clause that modifies the nominal, whereas the nominal is coreferential with a constituent inside the relative clause (here the constituent may be realized as a relative pronoun, another relative word, or it may not be overtly realized at all). The acl:relcl relation points from the head of the modified nominal to the head of the relative clause.

Pomak relative clauses are finite clauses; they are introduced either by a relative determiner (e.g. žýjen-žána-žóno), or by a relative pronoun (e.g. déno-déna-déno):

Zatvóreny še so pótevene, žýne zavót  Néstu i Ému faf Ksánti  
Closed will be the roads, those that are called Nestou and Emou in Xanthi
acl:relcl (zatvóreny, zavót)
Ja vídem mómiečeto déno gáliš 
I see the girl which (you) love
acl:relcl (vídem, gáliš)
