allocate_GOAL · 割り当てる (wariateru)

Hierarchy

Same inventory as English allocate_GOAL. Not three co-arguments of one V predicting a stable Double-o and a transfer. Surface count can name the president, 14M BTC, and the ministry — but the listed third is a Goal individual y via Japanese ni, not a Purpose property via tame-ni (earmark). HAVE(y,m) is optional / speaker-variable, not required. Writing those three as sisters of a grant-like Appl_HAVE predicts productive Double-o and a drawing-rights challenge to e2. Japanese keeps the middle, and it still refuses two o.

14M BTC = one MeasureP. Orthography / #P morphology is not extra arity. Amount and Denomination share one Case object. Composition is V(#P), not V(n)(U). Hom(m, e): the designation is measured by the quantity. Floating counters under negation still split N from Num+# — they do not split Amount from unit as two verbal sisters (MeasureP_Japanese_Counters).

Working hierarchy: Agent > Theme > Goal (> optional Purpose, Time, Source — high / peripheral). Theme outranks Goal for measuring; Goal can promote in passive (unlike earmark’s Beneficiary). What Group A Japanese changes is particle cloth. What it does not change is the inventory.

∃e [ DESIGNATE(e)
  ∧ THEME(e, m)
  ∧ GOAL(e, y)
  ∧ Hom(m, e) ]
  · HAVE(y, m) optional / speaker-variable — not listed as required

Japanese frames · Case clothes

Theme object under o; Goal as ni-PP that can promote. Double-o is unused — Japanese does not copy English’s degraded DOC as two ACC Themes. Four-place surface: ni-Goal + tame-ni Purpose. Primary lemma: 割り当てる / wariateru. Light-noun 割り当てする / wariate-suru is the same GOAL cloth. Companion 配分する / haibun-suru stays allocate-leaning (split-among Goal). 充当する / jūtō-suru is a hinge toward Purpose / earmark — flagged, not merged.

MeasureP WH · denomination diagnostics

WH forces Amount ≠ Denomination inside one Case object. Verbal WH sees the Theme MeasureP under o, not unit and degree as two objects of allocate. Same MeasureP pattern as pay_GIVE’s Amount, sell’s Price, charge_FEE’s fee, deduct’s decrement, bet’s Stake, and earmark’s Resource — here the MeasureP is the addressed Theme (ACC), and Goal stays a selected ni-PP (or promoted).

Superiority ranks Agent > Theme > Goal > (optional Purpose / Time / Source). Amount and Denomination never compete as two verbal WH-items. Cheap NegQ association tracks the Case object: ACC MeasureP under 割り当てる. Goal-ni is selected enough to WH with dare-ni; it is not a second ACC.

Geometry · allocate_GOAL ≠ earmark ≠ grant_GIVE ≠ uru ≠ nyūkin

In 大統領は省に 14M BTC を割り当てた, the BTC is addressed to an office. The ministry need not HAVE drawing rights. Spending is not e2. That is Allocation with Goal flavour — between Purpose-restriction (earmark / 充てがう) and conferral (grant / 交付する).

• ≠ earmark / 充てがう / 用途する. Shared designation, MeasureP, authority, Type B Purpose, missing spend-true. Split: listed third is Goal individual y via ni (allocate) vs Purpose property P via tame-ni (earmark). Goal promotes (✓ 省は 14M BTC を割り当てられた); earmark Beneficiary does not (*省は 14M BTC を充てがわれた). HAVE idle on earmark, sliding on allocate.
• ≠ grant_GIVE / 交付する / 与える. Shared promotable human third and ni-frame available. Split: grant requires Appl_HAVE / HAVE-RIGHT; allocate’s HAVE is optional. Grant has Recipient-as-HAVE; allocate refuses Double-o and does not require drawing rights. Follow-up いや、省は引き出し権を得ていない challenges grant e2; on allocate it is speaker-variable (budget-speak vs disbursement-speak).
• ≠ book / reserve / schedule. Same Allocation family (Index 2 lists those three). Split: reserve a cabin for the team is Beneficiary; schedule for Friday is Time; allocate 14M BTC 省に is Goal. Earmark is Purpose flavour of the same family.
• ≠ 売る / sell. Sell: Recipient HAS goods; Price stays inside de. Allocate: Theme is ACC MeasureP of the designation; 省に is Goal, not Price. No SWAP inversion. Spending not entailed.
• ≠ bet / 賭ける. Shared MeasureP packaging. Split: bet’s third is settlement Content (Proposition); allocate’s is a Goal individual. *トランプが勝つことを割り当てた — Goal is not Settle(p).
• ≠ charge_FEE / pay_GIVE / deduct / credit_FIN. Shared MeasureP Hom available. Split: chargeFEE / pay write levy or Appl_HAVE transfer; deduct writes FROM decrement (kara); credit_FIN writes ledger HAS_ON_BOOKS (ni Account). Allocate tags/addresses a line without requiring those results. Particle overlap (ni on credit_FIN Account vs allocate Goal) is packaging coincidence, not geometry identity — FIN entails HAS_ON_BOOKS; allocate does not.
• HAVE as sliding feature. Follow-up いや、省は引き出し権を得ていない: idle challenge to earmark e2; default challenge to grant e2; speaker-variable on allocate. That middle is why institutional Japanese keeps 割り当てる next to 交付する.
• Restriction / address-true is e2. A follow-up that denies spending or HAVE does not (by default) deny the allocate event. Reallocate (再割り当て) redirects Goal; later event.

Shells, ApplP, and Case

VoiceP  [ 大統領ga
  VP  [ √ALLOCATE_GOAL / √WARIATE   [ MeasureP  [ Amount 14M ] [ N BTC ] ]o ]
  GoalP / Appl_GOAL  [ ni  [ 省 ] ]
  (PurpP  [ tame-ni  [ 技術 ] ]) ]

Light packaging (same geometry):
  割り当てる · 割り当てする · 配分する
  — lexical verb / light-noun / companion; Goal stays ni

Voice introduces Agent with AUTHORITY(x,e) as a selectional / felicity conjunct — not a fifth argument. Presidents, treasuries, CFOs, protocols, and statutes pass; bare persons need a hat; weather fails. Theme sits as Incremental Theme of the designation under ACC o. Goal attaches as Appl_GOAL / wrapper-K spelled ni — listed enough to promote, not listed enough to be a stable second ACC the way grant’s Recipient is. Purpose, when present, is Type B tame-ni outside the first phase. Putting required HAVE in is how the grant cloth (交付する) is written — a different root packaging.

Japanese assigns ACC to the Theme. Goal is ni-PP (or promoted to subject). Purpose, Time, Source are further PPs. Passive promotes Theme QP as a whole, or Goal (✓), never Amount alone, never U alone, never Purpose into subject. Double-o is unused.

NegQ pointer · association sites

Negative questions on allocate_GOAL read the Allocation-plus-Goal geometry; they do not invent a fourth theta name. Neg sits high and associates downward. Cheap inner associate = Theme QP in the ni-frame (Goal if promoted). Purpose stays tame-ni when present. Spend-true missing as default; HAVE challenge speaker-variable.

Group A packaging · this tick Japanese GOAL only

Group A (English, Japanese, Mandarin, Navajo) keeps the Goal vs Purpose Case split under Neg. This tick is Japanese allocate_GOAL only — 省に 14M BTC を割り当てなかった (o-Theme, ni-Goal); *省を 14M BTC を割り当てなかった (no Double-o); Purpose tame-ni extra. English twin is live at allocate-goal.html. Mandarin: 拨给 / 分配给 write Goal with 给; 为了 marks Purpose (earmark diagnostic); 把 fronts the whole QP — pointed, not deepened. Navajo: classificatory handling stems plus outer purpose or beneficiary postpositions; restriction-without-Goal vs address-to-office is particles and context, not two inner Patients — remains open/scout. Label speculation; do not fake elicitation.

Open items

• 充当する / 配分する productivity. 配分する stays allocate-leaning; 充当する is destinar-class hinge (Goal-leaning ni vs Purpose-leaning tame-ni). Relative naturalness needs controlled elicitation — flagged scout-leaning, not closed. spec
• 当を割る (tō-o waru). Extract allocate-leaning (o-Theme, ni-Goal). Not ranked against 割り当てる. spec
• Mandarin 拨给 / 分配给 / 把. 给 writes Goal (allocate diagnostic); 为了 marks Purpose (earmark diagnostic); 把 fronts the whole QP. Predicted from the comparison paper, not elicited. spec
• Romance destinar / allouer / affecter / stanziare. DAT / à / a Goal clitic is the allocate diagnostic; cheap Neg associate. destinar a is hinge. Companion elicitation. spec
• Polish GEN-neg on allocation — GEN on the Theme QP in the to-frame, not on Purpose, not on a stranded unit; Goal DAT/PP should refuse GEN unless Goal is ACC. Same prediction as bet / deduct / credit_FIN. spec
• Floating counters under -nakatta. Confirm float still splits N from Num+# rather than Amount from unit on 割り当てる — open item already listed in the MeasureP counters note.
• HAVE sliding — budget-speak vs disbursement-speak packaging tests on 割り当てる vs 交付する; do not force grant’s drawing-rights default.
• Outer CAUSE (〜させる). Site on the making vs on the designation; Goal may promote under wrap; HAVE still not required; Double-o still unused.
• POST / ASCRIBE / SLOT distractors — keep off this NegQ profile; 割り当てる is a common POST verb in Japanese. Separate stubs if deepened later.
