obl:arg: oblique argument

The obl:arg dependency (oblique argument) is used to distinguish clearly oblique arguments from adjuncts for which the plain obl dependency is used.

In the Pomak treebank, an oblique argument seems to semantically function as an object that, however, is expressed with a prepositional phrase:

gǘvendisom so na mókse bráta 
lit: rely-I  myself  on by-me brother-the
"I rely on my brother" 
obl:arg (gǘvendisom, bráta)  

obl:arg in other languages: [bej] [cs] [de] [fr] [pl] [qpm] [u] [xcl]
