Really? So for instance you can incorporate the argument of an
intransitive verb? That's really interesting.... what I've read always
gave me the impression as you say that incorporated nouns couldn't be
referential, much as "I go fox-hunting" is acceptable in English, but
not "I go that-fox-over-there-hunting".
 As for Sai's example... I love the way in polysynthetic languages you
often get nominalizations and denominalizations etc one after the other
lots of times, like in the example where it seems a nominalization mean
"causing to not be tired place" = "resting place" seems to have been
incorporated into "find". :)
