  Selected article

Morphosyntactic alignment^[*] describes the grammatical relationship between languages' three main sentence arguments, in intransitive^[*] and monotransitive sentences.

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.
