nsubj:ifoc
: nominal subject of an instrumental-focused verb
In an analogy to nsubj:pass, nsubj:ifoc
signals that the mapping between syntactic functions
and semantic roles is non-standard. Specifically, the verb is in the instrumental-focused Voice,
hence the subject specifies an instrument rather than the agent.
“John wrote Mary a letter on the typewriter.”
