Peshpeg: Difference between revisions

Peshpeg displays a three-way split in its morphological alignment.  The nominal class system follows a nominative-accusative pattern among Class I nouns, an ergative-absolutive pattern in Class II nouns, and a direct alignment in its Class III nouns.  The nominative-accusative pattern marks direct objects with the submorpheme ''-j-''.  The ergative-absolutive system is distinguished by the submorpheme ''-d-'' for ergative arguments.  The direct alignment system has zero-marking on all core arguments.
