I came across the following sentence : "The cruise liner Costa Concordia capsized after hitting underwater rocks off the Italian island of Giglio." If I try to analyze its structure I would say: [The cruise liner Costa Concordia] (Subject) [capsized](V) [after hitting underwater rocks off the Italian island of Giglio.] Adverbial. My doubt is, analyzing the adverbial, I should say: finite clause acting as an adverbial?or non-finite ing-clause acting as an adverbial?
