This is a pseudo-frame that is used to mark syntactic dependents that are part
of a multiword
predicate – as in
verbal idioms, weather verbs, existential there, names, other fixed
expressions, or specialized sublanguages for such things as dates and times.
(Light verbs, on the other hand, are treated with META).
