Joseph Fatula scripsit:
> Case - Ingeminate
> For a noun that is the object of the first verb and the subject of the

> go outside." This is in the Tazhnakt languages.
The first example is what you describe, but the second isn't: it means
"He wants the event of (the dog goes outside) to come to pass." It cannot
be reduced to "He wants the dog" and "The dog goes outside".
> Motion - Transitive
> I've got allative (towards) and ablative (away from) variants of various
> spatial cases. But in the Morgenon and Ilgoen languages there's a
> transitive (through) motion form.
"Translative" is the usual name, as "transitive" means something else
(verbs which have objects).
