초록

The present paper on causative construction in Hindi presents an alternative view of the phenomenon by scrutinizing the form, function and the context of causative verbs in Hindi. There are several classifications of causative verbs in Hindi in the literature, but there is no formal consensus on the diverse usage of the verbs and everyone has adopted his/her own mechanism to handle the data for causative. The explanations that are given in literature are either complex or unclear and thus there are lots of exceptions. In our attempt, we have tried to focus on the semantics and the morphology of the causative verbs and examine them on the basis of their contextual functions. On the basis of this yardstick, we have proposed a four-way classification of the data of causative verbs in Hindi. We have introduced two new terms; a.) de-transitivized verb b.) pseudo-ditransitive verbs in order to explain the process of causativization in Hindi.

Abstract

The present paper on causative construction in Hindi presents an alternative view of the phenomenon by scrutinizing the form, function and the context of causative verbs in Hindi. There are several classifications of causative verbs in Hindi in the literature, but there is no formal consensus on the diverse usage of the verbs and everyone has adopted his/her own mechanism to handle the data for causative. The explanations that are given in literature are either complex or unclear and thus there are lots of exceptions. In our attempt, we have tried to focus on the semantics and the morphology of the causative verbs and examine them on the basis of their contextual functions. On the basis of this yardstick, we have proposed a four-way classification of the data of causative verbs in Hindi. We have introduced two new terms; a.) de-transitivized verb b.) pseudo-ditransitive verbs in order to explain the process of causativization in Hindi.
