Specifically, the core arguments of verbs, are the two arguments (in English, subject and object) of transitive verbs:
- The dog chased the cat
And the single argument of intransitive verbs:
- The cat ran away
English has a subject, which merges the more active argument of transitive verbs with the argument of intransitive verbs, leaving the object distinct; other languages may have different strategies, or, rarely, make no distinction at all.
For conlangers, it is important to know that few languages are of merely one morphosyntactic alignment; in most cases, the alignment varies depending on context.
- The phonology - the sounds of the language.
- The grammar - the framework of the language.
- The vocabulary - the words and dictionary of the language. Enter a title in the box below to start creating your language.
