It proposes that (i) converb clauses with {-(1)b) do not form a homogeneous group, (ii) the different and same-subject {-(I)b) con- verbs are not reduced and can include CP-level projections, (iii) the external syntax of the converbs differs, and converbs can attach at the CP, TP, or VP level, (iv) verb forms in {-(I)b), as predicates in finite clauses, express postterminality, and resultatives.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessKarachay-BalkarConverbSubordinationAdverbial ModificationInternal SyntaxExternal SyntaxArticle2-s2.0-852169684061Q428N/AWOS:001358235000006
