Alternation ‘Ditransitive object alternation of IVs’ (Uncoded)

Ditransitive predicates usually have two absolutive objects (T and R), and only R is indexed with the object prefix of the inflecting verb. The ditransitive alternation results in T rather than R being indexed. With some predicates R is attested encoded as a dative noun phrase. This alternation is marginal and mainly restricted to cases where T is animate. It is one of the few uncoded alternations in Jaminjung.
