Abstract

This paper describes the variety of causative constructions found in Tsum, a Tibetan language spoken in three Village Development Committees in northern Gorkha. All languages have some means of expressing an inchoative vs. causative relationship between verbs, though frequently the same strategy is not found for all verb pairs. We describe the range of ways inchoative/causative verb pairs can be related in Tsum.
