• The grammatical subject is that which incurs or has the effect.
• The object (consequence or result) and target (to whom a consequence is incurred) may be expressed in two ways. The former is used with most nouns, while the latter is used with all adjectives and some nouns (as seen in the examples above):
  • The object in the partitive case and the target in the allative case.
  • The object in the translative case (possibly with a possessive suffix), and the target (usually before it) in the genitive case.
