Dative alternation is but one example of a linguistic construct that must be learned over and above image schemas.
The forms with an overt case affix require a nominal which is either genitive or dative, and have the peculiarity that they cannot be stacked.
The result is not the loss of the dative marker but its replacement by another preposition.
For instance, bak ('look at', which takes a dative object), can be inflected; its reciprocal can be realized either syntactically or morphologically (8a-b).
Most significant is the fact that, as with the dative and genitive constructions, these nominative objects appear (discourse-neutrally) only in preverbal position.
Table 9 shows that two internal factors also constrain dative displacement.
The purpose of the study was to document the manner in which children acquired their earliest to dative, for dative, and double-object dative constructions.
As hardly any dative forms of the indefinite article occurred, indefinite forms were not included in the analysis.
