Comments and explanations of annotations in the annotation project Bangla labeled constructions, following the order in which the constructions occur. The construction level annotations use the system Construction Labeling, cf. Verbconstructions cross-linguistically - Introduction.

For general discussion of some issues addressed, see Bengali Constructions.

trNV signifies a construction where the apparent object is idiomatically fused with the verb, so that in a semantic representation there would be only one argument, and the predicate would be a fusion of the verb and the noun predicate. The object is always a bare singular.

('conjoined participle verb series' with shared subject having Agent role throughout, where V1 is transitive with an affected object, and V2 is an 'NV'-transitive xtructure, and where the whole sequence expresses a series of events)

9. cv-v1intr-v1suTh-v2vvSuMover-v2v1intr-v2v2intr-EVENTSEQ

(cv-series whose first part is intransitive, and whose second part is a vv-sequence each part of which is intransitive, and with an agentive subject)

10. cvSuIDALLsuAg-v1tr_v1obTh-v2tr_v2obAff-EVENT_INSTR

(cv series with identical, agentive subjects, whose over-all meaning is an event in which the first V expresses an instrument)

11. v-trScpr-suGen_scObNrg-suExp_obTh-PSYCHSTATE

(transitive with a secondary predicate, which is predicated of the object, which in turn is a non-argument, i.e., not a semantic argument relative to the verb (but relative to the secondary predicate))

14. vCaus-trLghtOblCs-suCsr_oblCsee_oblV

(the head is a verb whose form includes a causative formative; the construction is of type 'transitive light' plus an oblique constituent, where the subject is the Causer and the oblique expresses the Causee, and where the head of the oblique is a verb)

trLght has the definition 'transitive light verb whose complement is an NP expressing an event-type performed (or in other ways operated on) by the subject.' (Ex. Eng.: he makes progress.) The combination N - V is here not idiomatic, hence not an instance of trNV.
