(2) What is the context-neutral order of O and non-finite V in transitive clauses with a periphrastic tense in neutral contexts if applicable?

Please make sure the sentence contains a finite and a non-finite verb. The finite verb can be a tense auxiliary, a modal verb, or else.

Alternatives to be checked: Vfin-Vnonfin-O / Vnonfin-Vfin-O / O-Vfin-Vnonfin / O-Vnonfin-Vfin / Vfin-O-Vnonfin / Vnonfin-O-Vfin

b) Definite O

Prompt: What has happened?

My father has sold his car. / My father wants to sell his car. (Vfin-Vnonfin-O)

*My father sold has his car. / *My father to sell wants his car. (Vnonfin-Vfin-O)

*My father his car has sold. / *My father his car wants to sell. (O-Vfin-Vnonfin)

*My father his car sold has. / *My father his car to sell wants. (O-Vnonfin-Vfin)

*My father has his car sold. / *My father wants his car to sell. (Vfin-O-Vnonfin)

*My father sold his car has. / *My father to sell his car wants. (Vnonfin-O-Vfin)

Explanation: Please try to re-use the lexical material of (1) if possible, so that we get minimal pairs. Also use the same type of context prompt as in (1) for both (2a) and (2b) but changing the tense as necessary. Please use the same periphrastic tense in (2a) and (2b). Please exclude contrastive focus or topic constructions as well as pronominal arguments.

Background: Checking for possible effects of finite second constructions in the language, as in S-Aux-O-V / S-V-O languages of Western Africa or Germanic languages.
