nsubj:lfoc: nominal subject of a locative-focused verb

In an analogy to nsubj:pass, nsubj:lfoc signals that the mapping between syntactic functions and semantic roles is non-standard. Specifically, the verb is in the location-focused Voice, hence the subject specifies a location or goal rather than the agent.

Binigyan ng titser ng premyo ang istudyante . \n Given the teacher a prize the student .
nsubj:lfoc(Binigyan, istudyante)
nsubj:lfoc(Given, student)

“The teacher gave the student a prize.”
