advcl:svc: adverbial infinitive

Ukrainian uses the advcl:svc relation (svc standing for serial verb construction, in an analogy to compound:svc that is used in other languages) for adverbial infinitives attached to the main verb. Typically the main verb is a motion verb and the infinitive describes a purpose, that is, the intended activity at the destination.
