Verb meaning , Microroles , Coding sets

Coding set

A coding set is the coding means of an argument. If the argument is only flagged (coded by an adposition or case), its coding set consists of the flag. If it is only indexed, the coding set consist of the index-series (e.g. subject marking). If it is both flagged and indexed, it consists of both flag and index-series.

and Argument types

Argument type

Arguments are classified into cross-linguistic argument types: A (argument coded like the 'breaker' of 'break'), P (argument coded like the 'broken thing' of 'break'), S (sole argument of a verb that lacks A and P), I (argument coded like the instrument of 'cut'), L (coded like the sitting location of 'sit'), and X (all others).

Alternations

Alternation

A valency alternation is defined as a set of two different coding frames that are productively (or at least regularly) associated with both members of a set of verb pairs sharing the same verb stem. Alternations may be coded (marked by an affix on the verb, or by an auxiliary, like the English Passive) or uncoded (like the English Dative alternation).

Alternation name	Occurs	Comment	Coded?	Derived Coding frame	Examples
U Instrumental subject alternation more info	NNever	Alternation is only possible with za-lit', which is the result of applying the Prefixal Goal-Instrumental Alternation to this verb's basic coding frame and obtaining the derived coding frame 1-nom za+V.subj[1] 2-acc 3-ins, which then participates in this alternation, making the instrument into a nominative subject.	n		(5) Voda zalila polja. ‘The water poured into fields.’ ★
