mark: marker

A marker is the word introducing a finite clause subordinate to another clause. For a complement clause, these typically include ότι, πως, μήπως, αν etc. Notice that we annotate να, θα and ας particles as instances of aux.

For an adverbial clause, the marker is typically a subordinating conjunction like αφού or επειδή. The marker is a dependent of the subordinate clause head.

When prepositions are used as subordinate conjunctions to introduce clauses, they are also labelled with the mark relation.

For certain multiword subordinate conjunctions, we use combinations of the mark and the mwe relations.
