TY - CONF A1 - LaPolla, Randy J. T1 - Questions on transitivity T2 - Presentation to open the Workshop on Transitivity, Research Centre for Linguistic Typology, La Trobe University, 21 August, 2008 N2 - This handout (it isn’t a paper) presents phenomena and questions, rather than conclusions, related to the concept of transitivity. The idea is to return to these questions at the end of the Workshop to see if we can have a clearer consensus about the best general analysis of phenomena associated with transitivity. Section 2 presents alternative analyses of transitivity and questions about transitivity in three languages I have worked on. Section 3 discusses a few of the different conceptualisations of transitivity that might be relevant to our thinking about the questions related to these languages or that bring up further questions. Section 4 presents some general questions that might be asked of individual languages.
