Hi CJ,

I wonder whether the subject and predicate that are split, in some way, can still be described as 'immediate' ones, for example: The storm, which has destroyed most of the village, is now abating.

The storm, which has destroyed most of the village, || is now abating.

In any case, there are still two immediate constituents of the sentence, if that's what you're asking.

Thank you, CJ, for your useful reply. Yes, that's what I've been asking for.
