Definition
a strategy for an argument complex predicate in which the verb and the noun ( argument phrase) are phonologically related (and sometimes even identical). Example: in Maale ʔízí ʃeeʃi ʃéék'k'-á-ne 'He is urinating', ʃeeʃi 'urine' and ʃéék'k' 'urinate' are morphologically related as well as semantically extremely close. (Section 13.6)
