Does the Order of the S and the v Follow for Intransitive Verbs?
I don't see any problem with either of these word orders being pro-drop. And especially, like I said, if you've got case marking, no problem. Now, writing an OVS and OSV, does that assume it's going to be a nominal accusative? They're so rare anyway in natural languages. Although, speakers do regularly have to ask the person they're talking to to clarify what the hell they've meant. Oh, yeah. Sometimes you can actually drop too much and you actually think, what? That's exactly what people mean. If it's polypersonal, that's exciting and people tell us. Yeah.
