Abstract

The study focuses on monotransitive objective-focus (OV) agents in Balinese. The evidence shown in this study supports the claim that monotransitive OV agents are subject to indefiniteness conditions. These conditions are motivated by the fact that monotransitive OV agents appear with verbs which are zero-marked. AV agents, on the other hand, appear with verbs which are inherently marked. They are not sensitive to the condition. Nor are ditransitive OV agents whose verbs get marked either via applicativization or causativization process. Looked at in this way, ditransitive OV agents behave like AV agents in general. OV agents contains syntactically independent NPs which may be reduced to a bare N or expanded into a more complex NP, confirming that they are not analyzable as an incorporated or cliticized material.
