Definition

a strategy used for experiential constructions in which both experiencer and stimulus are expressed in an oblique argument phrase (the two participant roles are usually expressed with different oblique flags). Example: in Ancient Greek mélei moi toúto:n hô:n ero:táis 'I care about what you ask', the experiencer argument phrase moi 'I' uses the oblique (Dative) flag, and the stimulus argument phrase toúto:n hô:n ero:táis 'what you ask' uses the oblique (Genitive) flag. (Section 7.4)
