Notes

  1. If an indirect object is present, complements do not additionally differentiate meaning
  2. A benefactive adjunct is not the same as an indirect object
  3. When a locative is present, there might be a fine distinction in meaning dependent on the preposition used (if any)
  4. An other complement is a complement that is not benefactive and not locative.
  5. If there are multiple objects, there is one principal direct object.
  6. If there are multiple objects, the nature of the non-principal object is a determinant of the meaning.
  7. If there are multiple objects, the presence of indirect objects and complements and adjuncts does not differentiate meaning.
  8. Only in those circumstances where complements with preposition L or K act as secondary direct objects.
  9. An infinitive object clause is a clause starting with the preposition L, having an infinitive as predicate, and not having been coded as an object clause.
  10. A normal object clause is a daughter clause coded as rela=Objc, see the feature rela
