<p style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">I am currently working on the verb morphosyntax (or “morphological semantics”) of Modern Western Aramaic, a relic language still spoken in the Qalamoun mountains of Syria. My aim
is to develop a comprehensive classification that integrates Vendlerian actional classes with features such as syntactic transitivity and agentivity. This approach is driven by the evidence I have encountered so far.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Could you point me to any studies or attempts that classify verbs by combining these features?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
