Ok, here they are... :-))

Referring to the syntax section (3):

How do you handle verbs like "give". There would be
three entities: the giver, the givee (sort of *g)
and the gift. How would you do this? At the moment
I have troubles figuring out how you would incorporate
the direct object and how you could distinguish it
clearly from the indirect object.

How are passive nouns expressed (like the spoken
one, the beaten one, ...). Is there a generic word
meaning "somebody or something" which could then be
used like:
<somebody or something> - <one who speaks>

Is this the way you intended to solve such passive
noun constructions?
