| Citazioni | There are two varieties of valency-increasing derivations: causative adds a new A argument (prototypically to an intransitive clause - the old S becoming O - often also to a transitive) and applicative adds a new O argument (to an intransitive - the old S becoming A - or to a transitive - the old A staying as is and the old O moving to the periphery of the clause). |
