O– and D–Predicates: A Semantic Approach to the Unaccusative–Unergative Distinction
Journal of Semantics, 1995L'A. etablit une distinction conceptuelle entre deux classes de predicats semantiques: les predicats D, qui encodent les proprietes definissant l'objet, et les predicats O qui encodent les proprietes optionnelles. Les deux classes de predicats sont definies par rapport a une notion logique de champ.

Unaccusatives and unergatives: Evidence from Croatian
Folia Linguistica, 2014Abstract We argue that the unaccusativity phenomenon occurs in Croatian, as in many other languages. We demonstrate that unaccusative predicates not only have to meet specific (morpho)syntactic diagnostic criteria, but also that semantic criteria are involved.

Personal se with Unergatives in Romanian
2021Romance se has long been taken to be an indicator of unaccusativity (Rooryck and Vanden Wyngaerd, Dissolving binding theory. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2011, a.o.). This generalization has already been questioned for certain types of reflexives, and it was found to be too strong (Reinhart and Siloni, Linguistic Inquiry 36:389–436, 2005; Sportiche

An aspectual account of constructions headed by unergatives and unaccusatives
Cognitive Linguistic Studies, 2022AbstractThis article presents an aspectual account of the interface between lexicon and syntax. Following Tenny’s AIH (Aspectual Interface Hypothesis), we assume that only the aspectual property of lexical information is sensitive and predictive to argument structure.

Datives in Basque bivalent unergatives
2016Bivalent predicates which mark their sole object dative rather than absolutive/accusative are unexpected under the assumption that dative is associated with a ‘second complement’. Apparently first complements of morphologically transitive verbs are also found in Basque, in the main semantic classes already identified by Blume (1998).

Behavior adjectives : Dynamic, agentive and unergative
2012This paper examines the question of aspect with relation to adjectives. We argue that there exists a set of adjectives in French that exhibit linguistic properties similar to those of dynamic verbs, like imprudent ‘careless’ or méchant ‘mean’. All dynamic adjectives take a syntactic subject interpreted as “agent” and are unergative.
