(63) What type of marking is there for nominal arguments?
Alternatives to be checked: head-marking / dependent-marking / both / unmarked
b) transitive
nominal argument
Mary hates Peter. (head-marking)
pronominal argument
He hates me. vs. I hate him. (head- and dependent-marking)
Explanation: Dependent marking mostly refers to case marking (e.g., accusative, ergative, dative etc.) and adpositions while head-marking refers to verbal agreement indicating person or number (Nichols).
English has morphological dependent-marking in pronouns (e.g., he vs. him) only and head-marking only in third person.
