Ga Valence Profile
--Lars Hellan 16:16, 3 November 2013 (UTC) Ga Valence Profile, July 2009.
Some of the types in the list below are exemplified by annotated sentences in the text collection http://typecraft.org/TCEditor/16/. To see a specific type exemplified, glue the valence type label into the slot 'Phrase description', found on the following path (you should create a new tab for this)
Phrase search -> Phrase level -> Phrase description
and push 'Search'.
An introduction to the code used is given in Verbconstructions cross-linguistically - Introduction.
A monograph, authored by Mary Esther Kropp Dakubu, going through most of the verb types in Ga is found here:
Ga_verb_dictionary, (the monograph is not yet quite completed).
