Detail #187: Onwards with #182

Let us consider idea #182 and add some complications. Let's posit that the language further has some verbs where the subject has exceptional prepositions.

Thus, all the following pairs of structures signify the same subjects and objects, i.e. NOUN2 is an object in all of them, NOUN1 a subject. The / bit only serves to remind the reader of this, and is not a marker that is present.
NOUN1 hits NOUN2
NOUN2 hits subj.prep. NOUN1


NOUN1 has NOUN2
NOUN2 has at NOUN1

NOUN1 sees NOUN2
NOUN2 sees for NOUN1
