<p>Don't say Subject 1 and Subject 2. You'll just drive yourself
crazy. There is only one subject, and it is the word at the end.
Semantics is much more important than syntax here. Say something
like this instead: causer, causee, and patient (thing acted upon).<br>
</p>
<p><causer> causes <causee> to <verb>
<patient><br>
<causee>vaD <patient> <verb>moH <causer><br>
