| ==Syntax==

| Proto-Shalaian syntax was AuxVOS:
| |
| *Stative verbs (eventually all intransitives): Aux_i prep VN-w_i S_i (abs/erg in Shal.)
| |
| *Dynamic verbs (eventually transitives): Aux_i prep s_j-VN-w_i O_j S_i (abs/erg in Shal.)
| |
| *Infinitive clauses: prep VN.INF-w_i S_i O ... (nom/acc in Shal.)
