DRAFT WITH SUGGESTIONS 2010
1. sv-v1obIDv2su-v1tr-v1suAg_v1obAff-v2intr-v2obAff-CAUSERESULT (Resultative construction-Switch reference)
sv-v1obIDv2su => sv-v1obIDv2su
v2-int => v2tr (here v2 is unaccusative and intransitive) In my analysis in my dissertation it inherits from the type intrans-verb-lxm
LH: So then we should say 'v2intr'...
OO: OK I will effect the correction
v1tr-v1suAg_v1obAff-v2tr-v2obAff => v1tr-v1suAg_v1obAff-v2intr-v2obAff
"v1obIDv2su" is for area 2.correction done

2. svSuObIDALLsuAgobAff-v1tr-v2tr-EVENTSEQ (Consequential construction (token subject and object sharing))
svsuObIDsuAgobAff => svSuObIDALLsuAgobAff
CAP S after 'sv', and 'IDALL' instead of 'ID', in this connection (area 1 of mv). Please apply these two changes in all examples relevant. OK
Òzó lé ìzẹ́ ré
“Ozo cooked rice and ate”
3. svSuObIDALLsuAg-v1tr-v1obPrcpt-v2tr-v2obAff-EVENTOVERLAP (Purpose construction (token subject and object sharing))
svsuObIDsuAgob => svSuObIDALLsuAg. Here, the verbs in series share object tokens but with different thematic roles. I suggest that we include this information in area 2 v1tr-v2tr = v1tr-v1obPrcpt-v2tr-v2obAff. Here I have used the tag Prcpt to indicate the perceived entity as opposed to the tag Presit that indicates a perceived situation
LH: I agree. Note, though, that IDALL refers to reference identity only, so we can use 'IDALL' also in these cases (3 and 4).
OO: OK correction effected for examples 3 and 4. IDALL included

4. mvcSuIDALL-v1tr-v1suAg_v1obAff-v2tr-v2suAgsens_v2obAff- CAUSERESULT (Negative resultatives(token subject sharing and different objects))
'I have not used the tag IDALL here in area 1 because the shared NP subject do not have the same theta role as indicated in area 2.'
Should be 'sv'.Negative resultatives are not svs calling them that may be misleading. I suggest we use the tag mvc -multi verb constructions- for these construction types. Area 1 nrcsuID = mvcsuID
Sure this is CAUSE_RESULT? during our discussion we considered labeling the situation type as an EventSEQ but the event depicted by v1 brings about the resultant state in v2 and tests I applied to this construction type in my thesis show that there is a causation relation linking v1 and v2.
