Split-intransitive systems of argument marking provide an excellent opportunity to study the structure of the lexical-semantic representations that underlie argument structure alternations and argument linking rules. Yukatek Maya has a typologically rare split-intransitive pattern of argument marking controlled by overt aspect-mood marking. Kramer and Wunderlich (1999) have advanced an analysis according to which the linking of thematic relations to syntactic arguments is governed by lexical aspect as the sole lexical-semantic property linking principles are sensitive to in this language. Critical evidence against this proposal comes from the transitivity alternations of three classes of intransitive verbs: degree achievement verbs, non-internally-caused process verbs, and posture verbs. Transitivity alternations emerge as being governed by the distinction of internally-vs. externally-caused events. The Yukatek facts suggest that argument linking operates on a lexical information structure (event structure) that partially determines (and thus also underspecifies) both lexical aspect and participant structure.
