Consider the domain of movement verbs. Following Talmy \[23\], these can he semantically classified with reference to the meaning components: MOTION, MANNER, CAUSATION, THEME (MOVING ENTITY), PATH AND REFERENCE LOCATIONS (GOAL, SOURCE). Lexicalization patterns which arise from identifying clusters of such meaning components in verb senses can be systematically related to distinct subcategorization frames. 1 For example, the arguments of a verb expressing directed caused motion (e.g. bring, put, give) are normally a causative subject (agent), a theme direct object (moving entity) and a directional argument expressing path and reference location (goal), e.g.</Paragraph>
