Zusammenfassung:"In this book, Eladio Mateo Toledo presents a description and analysis of resultatives, end-states, monitoring constructions, causatives, and directional constructions in the Mayan language Q'anjob'al spoken in the northwest of Guatemala.

This volume contains the first coherent account of a series of complex predicates in a Mayan language. The book shows that complex predicates in Q'anjob'al use one of two predicative frames, a verb+verb frame or a nonverbal+verb frame, and that only five general parameters explain their formal and semantic properties"--
