本文认为，日语中有两类双及物动词将其与格论元与不同的结构位置联系在一起：一种是将与格论元投射到比宾格论元更低的位置，另一种是将与格论元投射在比宾格论元更高的位置。这一主张的证据来自观察到的双及物动词的使役-启动交替中的一个差异。一类动词将宾格论元提升到初始变体的主语上，这一点在贝克(1993,1995)一书中有所讨论。然而，另一种类型将与格论元推进到主语。这两类动词的与格论元都有主题角色的区别：一个是目的，一个是体验者。此外，本文还讨论了被动结构的结构、A移位的位置以及代词的约束变量阅读的结构条件。
This paper argues that there are two types of ditransitive verbs in Japanese that associate their dative arguments with different structural positions: one projects the dative argument in a lower position than the accusative argument, whereas the other generates it in a higher position than the accusative argument. Evidence for this proposal comes from a difference observed in causative-inchoative alternations of ditransitive verbs. One type of verb promotes the accusative argument to the subject of the inchoative variant, which is discussed in Baker (1993, 1995). However, the other type advances the dative argument to the subject. It is also claimed that the dative arguments of the two types of verbs are distinguished by thematic role: one is goal, whereas the other is experiencer. Furthermore, this paper deals with issues concerning the structure of a passive construction, locality of A-movement, and the structural condition on bound variable reading of a pronoun.
