Abstract
J. van Voorst This study proposes a semantic analysis of transitivity that is centered around the different degrees of intimacy that can exist between the entities expressed by the subject and the direct object noun phrase. The analysis is based on phenomena pertaining to manner adverbiale and the individuation of the direct object. Lexical phenomena pertaining to psychological verbs and verbs like pousser and presser will be used to illustrate the model.
