ccomp: clausal complement

A clausal complement of a predicate is a dependent clause which is a core argument. That is, it functions like an object of the predicate.

We split the verbal noun suffixes, and mark them as the head of the subordinate clause. The unit with the subordinating suffix is tagged as noun. However, we still use ccomp for the relation between the higher level clause and the clausal object.

At present, we use ccomp only for direct objects, i.e., non-finite noun phrases in accusative or nominative Case. The arguments in other cases are marked using nmod relation or appropriate subtype of it.

Sonunda " artık yeter " dedi . \n Finally, he said " that's enough " .
ccomp(dedi, yeter)
Sevmiyorum demedim . \n I did not say I don't like it .
ccomp(demedim, Sevmiyorum)
Sevme/VERB –diğimi/NOUN söylemedim/VERB . \n I did not that I don't like it .
ccomp(söylemedim, –diğimi)
acl(–diğimi, Sevme)
Yarın gelecek sanıyordum . \n I thought he'd come tomorrow
ccomp(sanıyordum, gelecek)
Sanıyordum ki yarın gelecek . \n I thought he'd come tomorrow
ccomp(Sanıyordum, gelecek)
