mark: marker

A marker is the word introducing a finite clause subordinate to another clause. Similar to case, it can be a preposition, a subordinate conjunction or an adverb. Unlike case though, it introduces clauses, not complements. The mark element is a dependent of the subordinate clause head.

Bossi quando parla si copre di ridicolo, dovrebbe bastare questo a punirlo . 
mark(parla, quando)
mark(punirlo, a)
Abbiamo cercato di presentare una interpretazione diversa. 
mark(presentare, di)
Nessuno può essere obbligato se non per disposizione di legge .
mark(disposizione, se)

It is used also on the head of mwe relations when they refer to verbs.

Prima di gettarsi in mare . 
mark(gettarsi, Prima)
mwe(Prima, di)
