		The total number of aspect markers (perfective and inchoative le, resultative verb complements, and verb reduplication) in her study was tabulated and compared with the numbers from this study.
		When the inchoative aspect marker occurs in an imperative sentence it likewise carries the meaning of inception of a new situation even though that situation is only assumed at the time of speech and has not actually occurred.
		Inchoative (perfect) le: occurs at sentence-final position or after a stative verb (adjective) and indicates the inception or change of a state or condition.

		Inchoative imperfect, began to speak with tongues as in Jerusalem at Pentecost and as in Caesarea before the baptism.

		These are very systematic in English; from the door is open we have the inchoative: the door opened (= the door became open) and the causative inchoative: Mary opened the door (= Mary caused the door to become open) In the promise case it appears that the inchoative is needed.
		The latter case seems to require the inchoative of `have': I promised you to come to have a horse which is not fulfilled if you just keep the one you have, because you never get one.
		But it can also come inside the embedded clause but not inside the inchoative, with the meaning: I promise that there is a horse you will come to have.

	Semantic-Pragmatic Account for Dative-Subject Construction in Japanese (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Kabata conducted a survey study with 112 Japanese high school students who were asked to fill in the blanks by choosing aparticle in clauses with different semantic factors.
		Her study has shown that semantic characteristics such as the type of verb, type of object, volitionality, negation, and inchoative are crucial for the selection of ga/ni alternation, and that higher agentivity/volitionality tends to be marked with 'ga'.
		Her results thus suggest that transitivity plays a central role in understanding of clause structure in human language (Hopper and Thomson 1980).

		Establishing the derivation of the English inchoative alternant: The null reflexive morpheme
		This article looks at two characteristics of English which are traditionally considered highly idiosyncratic: the overwhelming tendency to use identical forms for both variants in the causative-inchoative alternation, and the lack of a verbal reflexive marker.
		This reanalysis not only presents evidence that it is the causative variant, not the inchoative, which is basic in English alternations (a much debated issue which continues to go unresolved to general satisfaction), but it does so using a broader, more ‘universal’ approach in a matter for which language-specific explanations are typically sought.

	Language Log: Am I boring, or are you?
		Encarta: transitive verb / make somebody uninterested: to make somebody lose interest and so feel tired and annoyed / He bored us stiff with a detailed explanation of the itinerary for his vacation.
		So inchoative boring is even rarer than inchoative bore, and I conclude that Anderson is way out on the tail of a pattern of morphosyntactic variation.
		The surprising thing is that so many of Hat's commenters thought "before boring of the task" is fine, or at least acceptable.
