nmod: nominal modifier
The nmod relation is used for nominal modifiers. They depend either
on another noun (group “noun dependents”) or on a predicate (group
“non-core dependents of clausal predicates”).
nmod is a noun (or noun phrase) functioning as a
non-core (oblique) argument or adjunct.
This means that it functionally corresponds to an adverbial when it attaches to a verb, adjective or other adverb.
But when attaching to a noun, it corresponds to an attribute, or genitive complement (the terms are less standardized here).
We differentiate adverbials realized by noun phrases or adpositional phrases (nmod as in “Na noite passada, eu nadei”) from adverbials realized as adverbs (advmod as in “Ontem, eu nadei”).
"PT no governo"
nmod(PT, governo)
"«Confissões» chega a Portugal"
nmod(chega, Portugal)
