9d nominalizations

[qiihoskeh]

9d now has both action and participant (agent, patient, product, instrument, location, and time) nominalizations. The former can incorporate pronominal arguments and the aspect as well as a non-referential noun, being formed by prefixing the definite article |h| to a finite verb. I just discovered that the latter can also incorporate pronominal arguments (as well as non-referential nouns), although not the aspect. Incorporated agent pronominals remain as prefixes even though agent nouns are suffixed (as are patient pronominals and nouns). Of course, the agent nominalization can't incorporate an agent and the patient and product nominalizations can't incorporate a patient.
