Verb classes • But not all of Levin’s verbs of creation and transformation can occur in the AHTY Cx: *Collin coined a hole through the window. *Lila derived a hole through the door. *Michael synthesized a hole through the paper. 54
Sub-class of verbs • Class II verbs form a sub-class of Levin’s (1993) “Verbs of creation and transformation” • They differ with respect to the nature of the effected object • Since we can’t explain this distribution in terms of more abstract constructions, we need to posit an independent idiomatic construction 55
