theta role उदाहरण वाक्य

The theta criterion ( or " ?-criterion " ) is the formal device in Government and Binding Theory for enforcing the one to one match between arguments and theta roles.
Case theory includes an inventory of structural Case and a series of lexical cases that are assigned ( in all languages ) at the level of the deep structure in conjunction with theta role assignment.
The bottom row gives a series of indexes which are associated with subscripted markers in the sentence itself which indicate that the NPs they are attached to have been assigned the theta role in question.
For example, the dative case and the goal / experiencer theta role; not all, and not only, noun phrases with the theta-role goal / experiencer get marked with the dative case.
Current theory recognizes the predicate in Specifier position of a tree in inchoative / anticausative verbs ( intransitive ), or causative verbs ( transitive ) is what selects the theta role conjoined with a particular verb.

The pronouns are marked with object case morphology, but they function semantically as the subjects of the infinitival verbs to their right, i . e ., they acquire their theta roles from the verb to their right.
If an argument fails to have the correct match between the number of arguments ( typically NPs, PPs, or embedded clauses ) and the number of theta roles, the sentence will be ungrammatical or unparseable .'s formulation is:
Drawing on observations based in typological cross-linguistic comparisons of languages, linguists in the relational grammar ( RG ) tradition ( e . g . observed that particular thematic relations and theta roles map on to particular positions in the sentence.
Construction types that violate the bidirectional relationship in Burzio s generalization ( see Hindi example above ) provide evidence that a similar generalization can be made for such languages : the absence of a subject theta role implies that ergative case is unassigned.
Lexical cases such as nominative usually mark predictable theta roles, but there is a substantial amount of characteristic behaviour involved indicating that a verb's ability to assign a lexical case to one of its arguments must be specified in that verb's lexical entry.
