Left inferior frontal activations depending on the canonicity determined by the argument structures of ditransitive sentences: an MEG study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 To elucidate the relationships between syntactic and semantic processes, one interesting question is how syntactic structures are constructed by the argument structure of a verb, where each argument corresponds to a semantic role of each noun phrase (NP).

The Effects of Referential Factors in Mojeno Trinitario Derived and Non-Derived Ditransitive Verbs
Linguistic Discovery, 2012 This paper investigates the effects of referential factors (more specifically the person hierarchy) in non-derived and derived three-participant constructions of Mojeno Trinitario, an Arawak language of Bolivia. The basic effect of referential properties

Persian Double Object Constructions and Ditransitive Constructions within Distributed Morphology [PDF]
مطالعات زبانها و گویشهای غرب ایران, 2021 The aim of this paper is to study dative and locative alternations in Persian based on Wood & Marantz (2017) within Distributed Morphology. We attempt to investigate the extent to which argument structure alternation can be reduced to the syntactic and ...

Annual Review of Linguistics, 2015 Ditransitive constructions are syntactic constructions with three arguments, an agent (A), a theme (T), and a recipient (R), which express an event of possessive transfer (‘give,’ ‘lend,’ etc.) or an event of cognitive transfer (‘tell,’ ‘show,’ etc.). Their cross-linguistic study has revealed three major alignment types: indirective alignment (with the
