    Maybe not as clearly as you thought, champ.

    Also, Jesus dude. I initially only wanted to drop some knowledge about agentives vs. anticausatives, not have a huge snarky slapfight just because you chose an incredibly odd and incorrect hill to die on elsewhere in the thread.

    Maybe try to have less of a hair trigger in response to innocuous comments in the future.

      Sure, sweet thing. You literally agreed that the title was ambiguous. How was it “incorrect” of me to point that out?

        Because of your additional normative position that that’s somehow a bad thing, instead of being a perfectly normal part of language that you have the faculties to easily resolve, as mentioned above.
