Two transitive constructions in Balinese

In focus are two major transitive sentence structures in Balinese, which differ not only in the verb form but also in terms of word order. One occurs with a morphologically unmarked ‘basic’ verb form, the other with a ‘nasal’ verb. Word order of the first construction is Patient-Verb-Agent, while the second is A gent-Verb-Patient. The main concern of this paper is to assign a grammatical relation to the argument NPs of these two transitive constructions in Balinese
