Aspects Of Split Ergativity

Jessica Coon

About this book

In languages with aspect-based split ergativity, one portion of the grammar follows an ergative pattern, while another shows a 'split'. In this book, Jessica Coon argues that aspectual split ergativity does not mark a split in how case is assigned, but rather, a split in sentence structure.
