yes the Nominative-Accusative case is on the argument
>2: The C1 - C2 opposition indicates the Nominative - Accusative opposition
so the subject will have only voiceless consonants and the object only
voiced ones so there is no confusion
There's also a difference between the verbs and the nouns
- verbs will beggin by a consonant and end by a consonant
((((C-V-C)-V-C)-V-C)(-V-N))
- nouns will beggin by a consonant and end by a vowel
((((C-V)-C-V)-C-V)(-N-V)
C = consonant/affricate
V = vowel
N = nasal consonant
then I still have (V-C) and (V-C-V) possibilities for other kinds of words
>especially if you allow the dropping of arguments,
What's the dropping of arguments? the fact that there's no object on an
intransitive verb?
I will solve that problem by using the same pronoun at nominative and
accusative and turning the verb at middle voice for a intransitive verb or
intransitive use
It rain -> It rains(+MV) itself
It grows -> It grows(+MV) itself
I see you -> I see(+AV) you
I see myself -> I see(+AV) myself
I see -> I see(+MV) myself
Except if you see a problem I didn't see it seems to function
