Approach to the Transitivity in Nahuatl of Tlaxcala
Abstract
In this paper I explore transitivization in Náhuatl, a language spoken in Tlaxcala, México. I follow Hopper and
Thompson's proposition of graduate transitivity from a typological point of view. I analyse the grades of
transitivity of perfective/imperfective clauses. From the inherent lexic aspect (Foley and Van Valin, 1984) I will
analyze the opposition of generic vs. defined referent in a clause.
