description |
This paper investigates the unique property of the syntax of psycho-collocations in
Lai which allows an ambitransitivity analyzed as a kind of grammaticalization. The
author claims that this syntactic phenomenon is possible because the syntax is
constructed around the possessor of the psycho-nouns who remains the
psychological reference regardless of whether the stimulus is expressed by a subject
or an object clitic. |
