3.2 The V-N Type Compound <br />

Why are the N-V type Syn-Compounds still attested?<br />

Both N and V in this type consist of two roots, i.e. both<br />

N and V are the result of root incoporation.<br />

We assume recursive root incorporation is banned. So<br />

when the N and V are the outcome of root<br />

incorporation, the other way is to resort to the strategy<br />

of N-V compounding, which is also allowed by the<br />

syntactic principles.
