expl: expletive
Romanian does not have expletives of the English sort.
However, we use the expl label for the following situations:
- clitic doubling:
O văd pe Mara . \n Her see-I PE Mara .
dobj(văd, Mara)
expl(văd, O)
- non-referential use of pronouns:
Am apucat - o la stânga . \n Have-I turned-her to left .
expl(apucat, o)
- expletive negation:
Cine nu știe că Pământul se învârtește în jurul Soarelui ? \n Who not knows that Earth-the SE spins around Sun-the ?
expl(știe, nu)
- possession:
Mi- am vândut mașina .
expl:poss(vândut, Mi-)
