In the search for linguistic universals which typifies the generative approach to grammar, nothing is as revealing as phenomena which manifest themselves in a wide variety of languages. By exploring the similarities and differences that we find in a single phenomenon cross-linguistically, we can gain insight into the nature of the linguistic universals that are responsible for the phenomenon in question. This study is an investigation into one such phenomenon, morphological causativization (henceforth causativization ), which may be illustrated by the following examples from a variety of languages
Epistemology · Generative grammar · Grammar · Linguistic universal · Linguistics · Nothing · Phenomenon · Problem of universals · Sociology · Variety (cybernetics · Artificial Intelligence · Computer Science · Historical Linguistics and Language Studies · Linguistics and Discourse Analysis · Philosophy · Syntax, Semantics, Linguistic Variation
