Working paper.
Mandarin-only micro-entry from
Allocate_Earmark_Comparison §11.2 Group A (“Chinese 拨给 / 分配给 write Goal with 给 and lean allocate; 专款专用 / 指定用于 write Purpose without a Goal and lean earmark; 把 fronts the QP on both. 给 is the allocate diagnostic; 为了 is the Purpose diagnostic.”), sharing √ALLOCATE_GOAL geometry with the English twin
allocate-goal.html and Purpose sister geometry on
earmark-zh.html. Constructed diagnostics diagnose
给-Goal,
把 of the whole QP, rejection of DOC and of two-
把,
为了 as an optional extra, Goal promotion, and HAVE sliding; they are not spontaneous-speech citations. Navajo companions in the same DOCX stay pointed only.
Constructed examples.
Frames below are packaging hypotheses aligned with Group A notes. Designation-plus-Goal-address is e2. Spending, transfer out of the reserve, and HAVE are not entailed as defaults. Do not fake elicitation. Document both 拨给 and 分配给; relative ranking is scout where the extract lists forms without ranking them. 预留 stays an earmark scout on the sister page — not a second root invented here.
Beyond Index 2.
Index 2 does not list Mandarin under Allocation, and it does not list
allocate as an Index 2 lemma. Index 2 Allocation cites book, reserve, and schedule only. The Mandarin Index 2 cell is Risk /
dǔ only. Like
earmark · Mandarin and
deduct · Mandarin, this root sits
Beyond Index 2 as a Group A sense×language page. Keep
给-Goal as the listed third; do not collapse to earmark’s
为了 /
用于 Purpose or grant’s required HAVE.
Scout / deferred.
Navajo classificatory-stem packaging remains labeled speculation/scout. Sell · Navajo remains deferred. Relative productivity of primary
拨给 vs companion
分配给 is scout-leaning where the extract lists both without ranking them.
预留 stays the earmark restriction scout on
earmark-zh.html. No fake elicitation.
Other allocate roots off this page.
This page is allocateGOAL only (resources to an office). Scout/flag only — do not import NegQ: allocatePOST (把金拨给了夜班 · assignTASK posting), allocateASCRIBE (把责任拨给了承包商 · attributeATT / blame), allocateSLOT (把三个小时拨给了这个问题 · Time as Theme). Earmark has none of those distractors. Mandarin 拨给 can wear those clothes in ordinary speech — that cloth is not this page.
Hierarchy
Same inventory as English allocateGOAL. Not three co-arguments of one V predicting a stable DOC and a transfer. Surface count can name the president, 14M BTC, and the ministry — but the listed third is a Goal individual y via Mandarin 给, not a Purpose property via 为了 (earmark). HAVE(y,m) is optional / speaker-variable, not required. Writing those three as sisters of a grant-like Appl_HAVE predicts a productive DOC and a drawing-rights challenge to e2. Mandarin keeps the middle, and it still refuses two 把.
Intended labeling (shared with English)
√ALLOCATEGOAL + Theme (MeasureP ⟨Amount, Denomination⟩ · ACC / 把) + Goal (给-individual / Appl_GOAL) · DESIGNATE · optional HAVE
Voice introduces Agent / Initiator with authority. Theme is the measuring inner argument — often a Measure QP ⟨n, U⟩ (1400 万 BTC) under ACC, frequently 把-fronted as a whole. Goal is an individual (office, ministry, lab, budget line) under 给, built into 拨给 / 分配给. Optional Purpose remains Type B 为了 / 用于 on top of Goal. Spending / transfer / HAVE are not listed as required results. Companion packaging (拨给, 分配给) keeps one GOAL geometry.
1400 万 BTC = one MeasureP. Orthography / measure-word 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. 把 takes the whole QP under 没 / 没有; it does not split Amount from unit, and it does not front Goal or Purpose.
Working hierarchy: Agent > Theme > Goal (> optional Purpose, Time, Source — high / peripheral). Theme outranks Goal for measuring; Goal can promote in the 被 frame (unlike earmark’s Beneficiary). What Group A Mandarin changes is Case cloth. What it does not change is the inventory.
Neo-Davidsonian sketch (comparison §3 · ZH cloth)
∃e [ DESIGNATE(e)
∧ THEME(e, m)
∧ GOAL(e, y)
∧ Hom(m, e) ]
· HAVE(y, m) optional / speaker-variable — not listed as required
Contrast √EARMARK: DESIGNATE(e) ∧ RESOURCE(e,m) ∧ RESTRICTED_FOR(e,m,P) ∧ Hom(m,e) — no HAVE; Purpose 为了 / 用于; reject 给-Goal. Contrast grantGIVE: Appl_HAVE required. Mandarin spells Goal as 给, Purpose as 为了.
Mandarin frames · Case clothes
Theme object under ACC, often 把-fronted as a whole QP; Goal as the individual introduced by 给 (inside 拨给 / 分配给) that can promote. There is no productive DOC and no two-把 of Theme plus Goal. 为了 / 用于 is an optional Type B Purpose on top of Goal — not a substitute for the 给-third. Primary lemma: 拨给 / bōgěi. Companion 分配给 / fēnpèi gěi is the same GOAL cloth. 专款专用 / 指定用于 are the live earmark contrast. 预留 stays that sister’s scout.

MeasureP WH · Neg diagnostics
WH forces Amount ≠ Denomination inside one Case object. Verbal WH sees the Theme MeasureP under ACC / 把, not unit and degree as two objects of allocate. Same MeasureP pattern as payGIVE’s Amount, sell’s Price, chargeFEE’s fee, deduct’s decrement, bet’s Stake, and earmark’s Resource — here the MeasureP is the addressed Theme, and Goal stays a selected 给-individual (or promoted). Under Neg, 把 fronts the whole QP (没 / 没有); 把 does not front Goal or Purpose, and it does not split Amount from U.

Geometry · allocateGOAL ≠ earmark ≠ grantGIVE ≠ 卖 ≠ 入账
In 总统把 1400 万 BTC 拨给了部委, 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 / 专款专用 / 指定用于) and conferral (grant / 授予).
- ≠ earmark / 专款专用 / 指定用于. Shared designation, MeasureP, authority, Type B Purpose available, missing spend-true. Split: listed third is Goal individual y via 给 (allocate) vs Purpose property P via 为了 / 用于 (earmark). Goal promotes (✓ 部委被拨给了 1400 万 BTC); earmark Beneficiary does not (*部委被指定了 1400 万 BTC). HAVE idle on earmark, sliding on allocate. Live sister: earmark-zh.html. 预留 stays that page’s scout.
- ≠ grantGIVE / 授予 / 给予. Shared promotable human third and a 给-frame available. Split: grant requires Appl_HAVE / HAVE-RIGHT; allocate’s HAVE is optional. Follow-up 不,部委没有获得提取权 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 为了团队 is Beneficiary; schedule 为了周五 is Time; allocate 1400 万 BTC 拨给部委 is Goal. Earmark is Purpose flavour of the same family.
- ≠ 卖 / sell. Sell: Recipient HAS goods; Price stays inside instrument / 多少钱 cloth. Allocate: Theme is the 把 MeasureP of the designation; 部委 is Goal, not Price. No SWAP inversion. Spending not entailed. Live: sell-zh.html.
- ≠ bet / 赌. Shared MeasureP packaging. Split: bet’s third is settlement Content (Proposition); allocate’s is a Goal individual. *把 1400 万 BTC 拨给了川普会赢 — Goal is not Settle(p). Index 2 Mandarin cell is this Risk verb, not allocate.
- ≠ 入账 / creditFIN. Shared 把-MeasureP and a 给 / 向 / 到 third available. Split: 入账 writes ledger HAS_ON_BOOKS. Allocate addresses a line without requiring that result. Particle overlap is packaging coincidence. Live: credit-fin-zh.html.
- ≠ deduct / 扣. Shared MeasureP Hom. Split: deduct’s third is FROM Domain (从); Reason is 因为. Allocate’s third is 给-Goal. Amount need not leave a domain. Live: deduct-zh.html.
- ≠ chargeFEE / 收 · payGIVE / 付. Shared MeasureP and a human third. Split: chargeFEE writes Appl_FROM (向 Payer) plus a levy; pay writes Appl_HAVE of the money. Allocate does not require either result. 为 on charge/pay is Consideration, not this page’s optional Purpose and not the 给-Goal. Live: charge-fee-zh.html · pay-give-zh.html.
- HAVE as sliding feature. Follow-up 不,部委没有获得提取权: idle challenge to earmark e2; default challenge to grant e2; speaker-variable on allocate. That middle is why institutional Mandarin keeps 拨给 next to 授予 and apart from 专款专用.
- Address-true is e2. A follow-up that denies spending or HAVE does not (by default) deny the allocate event. Reallocate (重新拨给 / 改拨 scout) redirects Goal; later event.

Packaging (same geometry):
拨给 · 分配给
— Goal stays 给; Theme stays ACC / 把
专款专用 / 指定用于 / 预留 — Purpose cloth; do not merge
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 / 把. Goal attaches as Appl_GOAL spelled 给 — listed enough to promote, not listed enough to be a second 把 or a bare DOC object. Purpose, when present, is Type B 为了 / 用于 outside the first phase. Putting required HAVE in is how the grant cloth (授予 / 给予) is written — a different root packaging. Putting Purpose in as the only third, and refusing 给, is how earmark is written.
Mandarin assigns ACC / 把 to the Theme. Goal is 给 (or promoted to subject). Purpose, Time, Source are further coverbs. 被 promotes the Theme QP as a whole, or Goal (✓ 部委被拨给了 1400 万 BTC), never Amount alone, never U alone, never Purpose into subject. Two 把 is unused.

Type A causation over inner GOAL allows a causee and still forbids two 把. The Theme stays the inner 把. Goal stays Goal. Purpose stays Type B. HAVE still not required.

NegQ pointer · association sites
Negative questions on allocateGOAL 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 把-frame (Goal if promoted). Purpose stays 为了 / 用于 when present. Spend-true missing as default; HAVE challenge speaker-variable.

Group A packaging · this tick Mandarin GOAL only
Group A (English, Japanese, Mandarin, Navajo) keeps the Goal vs Purpose Case split under Neg. Quote Allocate_Earmark_Comparison §11.2: “Chinese 拨给 / 分配给 write Goal with 给 and lean allocate; 专款专用 / 指定用于 write Purpose without a Goal and lean earmark; 把 fronts the QP on both. 给 is the allocate diagnostic; 为了 is the Purpose diagnostic.” Quote Negative_Questions_Earmark: “Chinese 把 fronts the whole QP under 没 / 没有. 为 / 为了 marks Purpose. 给 marks a Beneficiary when the packaging leans allocate. 把 does not front Purpose.”
This tick is Mandarin allocateGOAL only — 没有把 1400 万 BTC 拨给部委 (把 Theme, 给-Goal); *two-把; *bare DOC; *为了 as the only third. Purpose 为了 / 用于 stays an optional extra. English twin is live at allocate-goal.html. Japanese twin is live at allocate-goal-ja.html. Spanish, French, and Italian twins are live. Purpose sister is live at earmark-zh.html (专款专用 / 指定用于; 预留 scout). 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. Sell · Navajo remains deferred. Label speculation on ranking; do not fake elicitation.
