| scopeNote@en | A light verb behaves similarly to a copula. In Hindi, copula constructions form the intransitive counterparts to the transitive conjunct verbs: "वह कमरा साफ़ करता है" ("vah kamrā sāf kartā hai") = lit. "he room clean do is" = "he cleans the room" (transitive) vs. "कमरा साफ़ होता है" ("kamrā sāf hotā hai") = lit. "room clean be is" = "the room is clean" (intransitive). (source: Rupert Snell, Simon Weightman: Teach Yourself Hindi, Hodder Education, London, 2003, p. 93 (7.6)) |
