nmod:poss: possessive nominal modifier

This subtype of nmod is used in (genitive-)possessive constructions. Typically, the head of the construction is a possessive noun phrase, and the dependent is in genitive case. We also use nmod:poss in the alternative construction where the modifier is not in genitive case. So-called “bare noun compounds” are marked using the compound relation.
