What is Understanding Transitive Predication about?
Course 8 discusses transitive predication and the classification of transitive verbs into attitudinal causatives, dative causatives, and ergative causatives. It also covers how intransitive verbs can be recategorized as causatives through predicate raising or by using a transitive verb with a direct object and an optional or obligatory adverbial of place. Additionally, it examines the causative-inchoative relationship.
