<p style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Are you aware of <strong><span style="font-weight:normal">COME-passives</span></strong> in
any of the world’s languages? In Kurmanji, a North-West Iranian language, the
passive voice is formed using the verb <em>hatin</em>
(‘to come’), which is fully conjugated for all TAM forms, followed by the
infinitive. This construction appears to be <strong><span style="font-weight:normal">diachronically young</span></strong>,
because Kurmanji has a split ergative alignment. Its preterit base (from which
the infinitive seems to be formed secondarily) is a reflex of the <em><span style="font-style:normal">PIU resultative participle in </span>-ta</em>, and
the choice between the ergative and the absolutive depends entirely on the
inherent transitivity of the verb.</p>

<p style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif">Thank you very much,</p>
