Journal Article
Adverbial Cognate Objects
2006
Overview
Although sentences of the type The apples fell just a short fall to the lower deck, in which the unaccusative verb fall takes a cognate object, are shown by Susumu Kuno & Ken-ichi Takami (2004) to contradict a widely accepted constraint limiting the cognate object construction to unergative verbs, to the exclusion of unaccusative verbs, it is argued that the unaccusative hypothesis of David M. Perlmutter (1978) is unaffected by Kuno & Takami's argument, as related constructions of the type The apples fell the length of my arm provide evidence that the cognate objects of unaccusative verbs are not argumental but adverbial, having meanings of manner or extent & resisting passivization. The constraint is accordingly reworded to provide that only unergative verbs admit cognate objects that are interpreted as a resultant state or product. References. J. Hitchcock
