Working paper.
Japanese-only micro-entry from Tritransitive Group A packaging on deduct (
WH_Movement_Denominations_Deduct §7.1;
Negative_Questions_Deduct §13.1), sharing √DEDUCT geometry with
Lexical_Entry_Deduct_Argument_Structure and the live English twin
deduct.html. Constructed diagnostics diagnose particles, MeasureP / floating counters, Voice filter, and the FROM / TO dual with credit
FIN; they are not spontaneous-speech citations. Mandarin / Romance / Navajo companions in the same DOCX are pointed only — this tick does not deepen them.
Constructed examples.
Frames below are packaging hypotheses aligned with Groups A–D WH / NegQ notes (“Japanese puts the QP in ACC, Domain in kara, Reason in de / sei-de”). Decrement-true of ⟨n,U⟩ from Domain is e2. Destruction, house-credit, and actual guilt are not entailed. Do not fake elicitation. Scout-leaning forms are flagged.
Class table.
Index 2 does not list Japanese under Payment, and it does not list
deduct as an Index 2 lemma. Like
sell · Japanese and
creditFIN · Japanese, this root sits
Beyond Index 2 as a Group A measuring companion. Neighbouring Index 2 classes (Risk /
kakeru) are not a translation of deduct.
Scout / deferred.
Mandarin 扣 / 扣除, Romance déduire / descontar / addebitare, and Navajo classificatory-stem packaging share the Groups A–D sections but are not micro-entries this tick. Relative productivity of light-verb companions vs primary 控除する is scout-leaning where the extract lists the root without ranking variants. Floating-counter split under -nakatta is logged from MeasureP_Japanese_Counters as open confirmation. No fake elicitation.
Hierarchy
Same inventory as English deduct. Not five-place. Not four sisters of one V. Surface count can name the game, 0.00368, ETH, every player in the dungeon, and the chat-rule violation — but Amount and Denomination share one Case object, Domain is one kara-DP, and Reason is high / outer.
Intended labeling (shared English metalanguage · Parse B)
√DEDUCT / DECREMENT + VoiceA(Agent-ish) + MeasureP ⟨Amount, Denom⟩ + ApplFROM(Domain) · hierarchy Agent-ish > MeasureP > Domain (> outer Reason)
Voice introduces Agent-ish (system / institutional Initiator; partial Proto-Agent). MeasureP ⟨n, U⟩ is Incremental Theme of the decrement — one ACC (o) object, Japanese #P with Amount in Spec and #° the unit. Low Appl_FROM introduces Domain as a set (or quantified DP); Japanese spells it with kara. Optional high Reason is JUSTIFIED_BY (de / sei-de), not Purpose (earmark), not Content (bet), not Consideration (chargeFEE). Light-noun / light-verb packaging (控除する) keeps one decrement geometry.
0.00368 ETH = one MeasureP. Orthography / #P morphology is not extra arity. Amount and Denomination are both inner arguments of that object. Composition is V(#P), not V(n)(U). Hom(e, ⟨n,U⟩): the decrement is measured by degree n on scale U. Floating counters under negation still split N from Num+# — they do not split Amount from unit as two verbal sisters (MeasureP_Japanese_Counters).
What Group A Japanese changes is particle cloth. What it does not change is the inventory. Weather still fails Agent-ish. Settlement / destruction is still not entailed. Domain and MeasureP still refuse Double-o. Domain never promotes to ACC the way chargeFEE / fine promote Payer.
Japanese frames · Case clothes
Japanese puts the QP in ACC, Domain in kara, Reason in de / sei-de. Double-o is unused: Domain does not become a second ACC under Neg any more than it does in the declarative. Counters ride the QP (Watanabe #). Primary lemma for the page: 控除する / kōjo-suru.

NegQ baseline (Japanese map · Group A §13.1)
✓ ゲームは全プレイヤーから 0.00368 ETH を控除しなかったのか。
✓ 何を全プレイヤーから控除しなかったのか。 WH = MeasureP (ACC)
✓ 誰から / どのプレイヤーから 0.00368 ETH を控除しなかったのか。 WH = Domain (kara)
✓ 誰が全プレイヤーから 0.00368 ETH を控除しなかったのか。 WH = Agent-ish
* 天気は全プレイヤーから 0.00368 ETH を控除しなかったのか。
* 全プレイヤーを 0.00368 ETH を控除しなかったのか。 Domain ≠ second ACC under Neg
A bare negative answer on the canonical NegQ most readily challenges the decrement event or the ACC MeasureP. Challenging the Domain wants that set already under discussion. Negation does not grow a double-object and does not promote Domain to ACC. DECREMENT updates the Domain members’ holdings; it does not entail destruction or house-credit.
MeasureP WH / NegQ · LBC and floating counters
Verbal MeasureP: Amount and Denomination compose one Case object. Whole-#P pied-piping is free under Neg. Amount-only is free when the unit is bound. Left-branch extraction of Amount leaving the unit next to V is still out — same LBC the English deduct map and the creditFIN / sell notes record. Bare 何 cannot take the unit and leave the degree in situ without Abney-side rescue.
- ✓ 何を全プレイヤーから控除したのか。 object-WH · wants QP or fee-kind (tesūryō, hoshōkin)

Bare 何を…控除した — four answer types (shared with English)
QP (default): 0.00368 ETH. / 十五ドル. — whole MeasureP.
KIND: 手数料 (tesūryō). / 保証金 (hoshōkin). — sortal N of the levy, not U of ⟨n,U⟩.
U (marked): ビットコイン. / USDC. / ETH. — unit-name with silent n; needs a currency menu. Not the first reading. Bare ETH を控除した is the type reading, marked.
MASS: お金. / 現金. — value-mass hypernym; legal object; not a denomination. Wrong-sort mass stays out.
Floating counters under -nakatta (open confirmation)
Group A open item: Japanese floating counters under -nakatta on 控除する should still split N from Num+# rather than Amount from unit — the MeasureP_Japanese_Counters note. Counters ride the QP; they are not a second object. Double-o remains unused by Domain and unused by U. This tick logs the prediction; it does not invent a closed elicitation paradigm.
Superiority ranks Agent-ish > MeasureP > Domain > Reason. Cheap NegQ association tracks the Case object: ACC MeasureP under 控除する. Reason-de does not lift a second unit the way charge’s Consideration can.
Geometry · kōjo ≠ nyūkin ≠ seikyū ≠ uru
In ゲームは全プレイヤーから 0.00368 ETH を控除した, the game writes 0.00368 ETH off each player’s holdings. That is MeasureP DECREMENT FROM a Domain, not ledger increment and not HAVE of goods. The player set is Domain. 0.00368 ETH is MeasureP. Decrement-true holds after the event; destruction / house-credit is not entailed.
- ≠ creditFIN / 入金する. Shared MeasureP. Opposite polarity: deduct = FROM_SET decrement (kara); creditFIN = TO_SET increment (ni). Same MeasureP object; opposite Appl direction. Live twin: credit-fin-ja.html. *全プレイヤーに…を控除した fails the polarity cut.
- ≠ chargeFEE / 請求する. Shared FROM_SET + MeasureP Hom. Split: deduct keeps Domain as kara-PP; chargeFEE / fine promote Payer/Domain to ACC or ni-Payer cloth (請求する). *全プレイヤーを 0.00368 ETH を控除した — use fine/charge cloth, not √DEDUCT.
- ≠ bet / 賭ける. Shared MeasureP (Stake vs decrement). Split: bet is 1+3 (Stake + Content + optional Platform); no FROM Domain of loss at e-time. Deduct has no selected Proposition.
- ≠ earmark. Shared MeasureP packaging available on Resource. Split: earmark’s for is Purpose (RESTRICTED_FOR); deduct’s de / sei-de is high Reason (JUSTIFIED_BY). No FROM-loss on earmark.
- ≠ payGIVE / 払う · ≠ 売る / sell. Pay writes MeasureP TO a Recipient (Appl_HAVE). Sell: Recipient HAS goods; Price stays inside de. Deduct: money/value is the ACC MeasureP of the decrement; Reason is JUSTIFIED_BY, not Price / Consideration.
- Missing defaults. Destruction, house-credit, and guilt-true are not entailed. 控除しなかったのか is compatible with the ETH never being destroyed — DECREMENT updates Domain holdings only.
English twin pointer: MeasureP ACC / Domain from; no with-cloth; no Domain-ACC promotion. Japanese spells the default as MeasureP o + Domain kara; there is no productive with-flip and no Double-o DOC cloth.

控除する (kōjo-suru)
— one decrement geometry; Domain stays oblique
Japanese deduct never assigns four structural Cases. MeasureP is o; Domain is kara. Low Appl_FROM is available (Domain as applied set). No low ApplHAVE of goods. No ACC promotion of Domain. High Appl / outer Reason is extra when present and is not a listed inner argument of √DEDUCT. The dungeon restrictor lives inside the Domain DP — Abney restrictor, not a verbal Loc sister of √DEDUCT.
Outer CAUSEG (〜させる) over the deduct root is Type A wrap: outer Neg denies the causing; the causee sits in ni (like a DAT that is not the Domain). Weather still fails as inner Agent-ish. Clitic-climbing analogues under Neg diagnose Type A union only when that outer CAUSE wraps deduct; they do not fuse Domain into ACC.
Omission does not demote MeasureP to a pure adjunct. Selected P-layers are optional in the numeration; they are still arguments when present. The diagnostic is participanthood under Case, binding, and WH — not omitability.

Group A packaging · this tick Japanese only
Group A (Japanese, Mandarin, Navajo) is the packaging contrast set already used for WH and NegQ on deduct (§7.1 / §13.1). Same hierarchy as English deduct; different host of MeasureP/Domain Case. This tick is Japanese deduct only. Mandarin 把 fronts the whole QP under 没 / 没有; 从 marks Domain; 因为 / 为了 marks Reason — pointed, not deepened. Navajo keeps the unit in the classificatory stem; denomination WH may be stem alternation — predicted, not elicited. English deduct.html is the live FROM twin. Japanese creditFIN is the live TO dual — keep the polarity split.
Open items
- Mandarin / Romance / Navajo micro-entries. Same Group A–B geometry; 把 / déduire / HANDLE packaging. Deferred — do not invent depth this tick.
- English twin. deduct.html is the live EN micro-entry (from-Domain, MeasureP LBC, Voice filter, NegQ). Keep Domain as from/kara; do not collapse to chargeFEE.
- Floating counters under -nakatta. Confirm float still splits N from Num+# rather than Amount from unit on 控除する — open item already listed in the MeasureP counters note.
- 差し引く / 天引きする companions. Packaging cousins of 控除する; relative naturalness needs controlled elicitation — flagged scout-leaning, not closed.
- Polish GEN-neg on odjąć / potrącić — GEN on the QP, not a stranded unit. Companion elicitation (Group C).
- Outer CAUSE (〜させる). Site on the making vs on the decrement; Domain never becomes Causee Case under √DEDUCT’s Japanese cloth (causee = ni, Domain stays kara).
