| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Tagalog and other Philippine languages are well known for their complex verbal morphology, often referred to as the focus system. This verbal morphology allows for deriving a variety of verb lexemes from a single verbal base. This project examined Tagalog morphosyntactic phenomena from a perspective of verb classification. The major finding of this project was that semantic classes of verbs play a significant role in analyzing voice phenomena, argument alternations, reduplication and repetition, motion expressions, and other linguistically important phenomena in this language.
