In (1), the complex predicate has two arguments, whereas in the resultative construction in (2), it has only one, the agent argument being impossible with the 'intransitivizing' light verb hu 'become'. According to Vaidya et al. (2019) , kar 'do' vs. hu 'become' is the most productive light verb alternation in Hindi, but there are some nouns which cannot combine with hu because they imply too great a degree of agentivity (Ahmed and Butt, 2011, 308) . Vaidya et al. (2019) propose an analysis of these phenomena in an LTAG framework, comparing this with an LFG analysis of complex predicates.

| "text": "By this definition, the f-structure f \\a is identical to the f-structure that results from removing the attribute a from the f-structure f . Predicate fusion works by unifying the f-structure of the light verb (which equals the f-structure for the clause) with the f-structure that results from removing the pred attribute from the f-structure of the embedded predicate, and at the same time specifying the role of the embedded pred within the clausal pred. So, given the schematic decomposition of pred features in (8), the phrase structure rule in (9) will create a unified f-structure with an appropriately fused pred feature. Vaidya et al. (2019) refer to restriction as a 'nonmonotonic' operation which effectively 'deletes' information in the formation of the monoclausal f-structure. This is not, in fact, the case, but their claim does reflect the slightly misleading way in which restriction is used in such analyses. Restriction is a well-defined set-theoretic operation, and is thoroughly monotonic: it does not delete or remove information from an f-structure, but rather specifies an f-structure which is identical to some other f-structure except in that it lacks one or more attributes. 2 But as discussed by Lowe (2015) , this is problematic for the standard LFG approach, because it implies (or rather, necessitates) the existence of a distinct f-structure for the embedded predicate. That is, the intuition behind the use of restriction is that complex predicates are fundamentally monoclausal, and that both light verb and lexical predicate should co-head a single clausal f-structure. What is usually ignored is that restriction can only achieve this if, or rather because, there also exists a separate f-structure headed by the embedded predicate alone. The existence of such an f-structure is necessitated by the (monotonic) definition of the restriction operator, yet it crucially undermines the monoclausality of the resulting analysis.", |

For example, the standard control equation in the lexical entry of raising verbs like seem, (\u2191subj) = (\u2191xcomp subj), already requires seem to have a subject argument, and a necessary constraint in the lexical entry of rain, requiring its expletive subject to have the form it (rather than, say, there), e.g. (\u2191subj form =c it), likewise enforces the presence of a subject argument.

The LFG+glue approach developed by Lowe (2015) overcomes both these problems. I have shown here that the light verb alternations discussed by Vaidya et al. (2019) can be unproblematically captured by the LFG+glue approach. Crucially, the kar vs. hu alternation can be modelled without assuming multiple subcategorization frames for the lexical predicate, i.e. without assuming lexical ambiguity. The alternation can also be modelled unproblematically without prejudice as to whether nominal predicates like bahas 'quarrel' select for an agent (\u2248 subject) argument or not.", |

Preventing such agreement in the case of nouns like yaad 'memory', a feminine noun which occurs with default masculine agreement on the verb, would be relatively trivial. There is no need, as suggested by Vaidya et al. (2019) , to require the nominal predicate to somehow serve as the object of the light verb for agreement purposes.", |

As noted in Lowe (2015) , this is not a weakness of the semantic analysis, but a broader issue with LFG's functional structure, which affects also the treatment of scope in recursive modification (Andrews and Manning, 1999) . This issue has been taken up by Andrews (2018) , who proposes changes to the standard approach to f-structure within LFG which resolves these issues. As shown for the semantics of adjectival modification by Andrews (2018) , it would require only a relatively minor set of changes to the glue terms provided above in order to integrate the present LFG+glue proposal with Andrews's approach to f-structure, eliminating the one major weakness of Lowe's (2015) approach.", |
