This study examines the syntactic functions and the semantic roles of core arguments in Central Manggarai Dialect of Manggarai Language (CMDML). There are two theories applied in this study, i.e., Lexical- Functional Grammar and Macro Roles. This research uses qualitative method. The source of data is Manggarai language texts in oral and written forms. The results show that the basic structure of verbal clauses in CMDML are S+P+O, P+O+S, S+P+O+Oθ, S+P+COMP, P+COMP+S,P+S+COMP and non-verbal clauses are S+P, P+S. The syntactic functions of core arguments in CMDML are Subject (SUBJ), Object (OBJ) and Object Teta (OBJθ). The semantic roles of core argument in CMDML are devided into two, macroroles and thematic roles. Macroroles consist of Actor and Undergoer, while thematic roles consist of Agent, Experiencer, Effector, Recipient, Theme, Source dan Patient.

This chapter briefly considers the evidence for transitive nouns and adjectives in early Indo-Aryan in both a typological and a theoretical perspective. The fact that most transitive nouns and adjectives in early Indo-Aryan fall under the traditional heading of ‘agent nouns’ (subject-oriented formations) is typologically notable, since while action nouns with verbal government are well-known, the possibility of relatively verbal agent nouns has not always been acknowledged. The theoretical analysis is framed within Lexical-Functional Grammar, and makes use of the concept of ‘mixed’ categories to effect a clear formalization of transitive nouns and adjectives which captures their transitivity while allowing them to remain fundamentally nouns and adjectives in categorial terms.

‎The glue approach to semantic interpretation has been developed principally for Lexical Functional Grammar. Recent work has shown how glue can be used with a variety of syntactic theories and this paper outlines how it can be applied to HPSG. As well as providing an alternative form of semantics for HPSG, we believe that the benefits of HPSG glue include the following: (1) simplification of the Semantics Principle; (2) a simple and elegant treatment of modifier scope, including empirical phenomena like quantifier scope ambiguity, the interaction of scope with raising, and recursive modification; (3) an analysis of control that handles agreement between controlled subjects and their coarguments while allowing for a property denotation for the controlled clause; (4) re-use of highly efficient techniques for semantic derivation already implemented for LFG, and which target problems of ambiguity management also addressed by Minimal Recursion Semantics.
