anyone know of any canon examples of {-moH} being used with a no
object prefix? Or having an English translation that appears to
be using an indefinite object (indefinite subject of the main
verb)? Or presenting the main verb in the infinitive in the
English translation?</blockquote>
<p>The object of a verb with <b>-moH</b> is not always the "subject
of the main verb." Sometimes the object of a verb with <b>-moH</b>
would also be the object of the verb if it didn't have <b>-moH.</b></p>
<p>To answer your request, yes:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><b>maghoSchoHmoHneS'a'<br>

<p>The agent of the sentence, the entity performing the verb <b>ghoS,</b>
is unspecified. The subject is the causer, the entity that causes
the agent to perform the verb. I recommend that any sentences with
<b>-moH</b> be analyzed in terms of semantic roles. The subject is
always the cause; the patient, if there is one, is the direct
object; the agent/experiencer may be the direct object, or it
might be the indirect object if there is a patient.<br>
</p>
<p>I'm not sure what value an English translation in the infinitive
would be.<br>
