Morphological Templates, Headedness, and Applicatives in Barupu
The applicative construction in Barupu (Macro-Skou family from northern New Guinea) performs all the functions expected of an applicative: it is a valencyincreasing construction that adds an object to a verb, similar to the relationship between the intransitive ‘be afraid’ and the transitive ‘fear’ in English. The applicative object behaves the same as the base object of a transitive verb with ...
متن کاملExtractions in Tsou causative applicatives
This paper investigates the extraction of an internal argument as the trigger in Tsou applicatives. It is observed that a locative applicative (LA) advances as the trigger an indirect object (IO), not a direct object (DO), whereas a(n) instrumental/benefactive applicative seems to advance either an IO or a DO. In this paper, I argue that the seemingly DO extraction in an IA is actually an IO ex...

To this end to achieve the procedure of thinking and the way philosophers achieve objectives, it is necessary to recognize their reasoni...
متن کاملOn the Status of Applicatives in Tsimshianic
This paper examines data which shows how the grammatical causative *kwinin the Tsimshianic languages may be used as a directional applicative. Additional morphology is often associated with *kwin-: there is suggestive evidence that the verbal suffix ‘T’ in Gitksan and Nisgha is the historical remnant of an applicative suffix. This analysis also collapses the two separate lexical entries for gwi...
متن کاملConstructional Meaning and Compositionality
One of the major motivations for constructional approaches to grammar is that a given rule of syntactic formation can sometimes, in fact often, be associated with more than one semantic specification. For example, a pair of expressions like purple plum and alleged thief 25 call on different rules of semantic combination. The first involves something closely related to intersection of sets: a pu...
