Description
Summary:This article builds on the ideas of W.R. Garr who argues persuasively that bound pronominal objects are highly topical, patientive and central to predication. Garr has made an important contribution to the study of bound forms, concurring with Jou.on and countering Muraoka. In his argument, Garr assumes that prepositional phrases are non-obligatory participants (adjuncts). My analysis refutes his assumption about prepositional phrases yet shows his argument for bound pronominal objects still holds. I attempt to further Garrfs contribution by clarifying the role of prepositional phrases and thus strengthening his claim on bound forms. I do so by analysing (Piel), a frequently occurring verb.
