earmark · afectar para / reservar

Hierarchy

Same inventory as English earmark. Not three co-arguments of one V predicting a DOC and a transfer. Surface count can name the president, 14M BTC, and new technology — but Purpose is a use-property (type ⟨s,t⟩) via Spanish para, not a Goal of motion via a / DAT (allocate) and not a HAVE-Recipient (grant). Writing those three as sisters predicts a Goal DAT promote and a spend entailment. Spanish keeps Purpose as para, and it still refuses Goal DAT on this cloth.

14M BTC = one MeasureP. Orthography is not extra arity. Amount and Denomination share one Case object. Composition is V(Resource), not V(n)(U). Hom(m, e): the designation is measured by the quantity. Romance quantity clitic en resumes the QP — not a unit stranded from its degree, and not Goal (y tracks venue / dossier, not Goal).

Working hierarchy: Agent > Resource > Purpose (> optional Beneficiary, Time, Instrument — high / peripheral). Resource outranks Purpose for Case, passives, and measuring. What Group B Spanish changes is Case cloth (para, reject DAT Goal, en). What it does not change is the inventory.

Spanish frames · Case clothes

Resource object under ACC; Purpose as para-PP. There is no productive DOC. Purpose does not become an object. Beneficiary sometimes looks like an applied object in allocate’s DAT, but earmark cloth keeps Beneficiary as para and refuses Goal DAT promote. Four-place surface: para Purpose (+ optional Beneficiary / Time). Primary lemma for the page: afectar para (Purpose / earmark hinge). Index 2 companion reservar wears the same restriction lean — document both; do not invent a sense split.

MeasureP WH · denomination diagnostics

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

Superiority ranks Agent > Resource > Purpose / Beneficiary > (optional Time / Vehicle). Amount and Denomination never compete as two verbal WH-items. Cheap NegQ association tracks the Case object: ACC MeasureP under afectar / reservar. Quantity clitic en resumes the QP (Romance Group B map); y tracks venue / dossier, not Goal. Purpose-para is selected enough to WH with ¿para qué?; it is not a second ACC and does not promote like Goal. DAT on destinar / asignar is Goal/Ben allocate cloth, not Purpose.

Geometry · earmark ≠ allocate_GOAL ≠ grant_GIVE ≠ reservar_Index2 ≠ descontar

In El presidente afectó 14M BTC para nueva tecnología, the BTC is restricted for a use. New technology does not HAVE the coins. Spending is not e2. That is Allocation with Purpose flavour — not Goal-address (allocate / asignar / destinar a), not conferral (grant / conceder / otorgar), not Risk, not Exchange.

• ≠ allocate_GOAL · ES / asignar / destinar a. Shared designation, MeasureP, authority, Type B Purpose available, missing spend-true. Split: listed third is Purpose property P via para (earmark) vs Goal individual y via a / DAT (allocate). Goal DAT / promote (✓ ¿No se le asignaron 14M?); earmark Beneficiary does not (*¿No se le afectaron 14M? as Goal). HAVE idle on earmark, sliding on allocate. Live twin: allocate-goal-es.html.
• ≠ grant_GIVE / conceder / otorgar. Shared authority and MeasureP available. Split: grant requires Appl_HAVE / HAVE-RIGHT; earmark refuses HAVE as e2 and keeps Purpose as para. Follow-up No — el ministerio nunca recibió derechos de disposición challenges grant e2; on earmark it is idle (restriction can hold without drawing rights).
• ≠ book / reserve / schedule / Index 2 reservar / planificar as Ben/Time only. Same Allocation family (Index 2 lists those). Split: reserve a cabin para el equipo is Beneficiary; schedule para el viernes is Time; earmark 14M BTC para nueva tecnología is Purpose. Same family of heads; different flavour of the non-measuring inner relation. This page uses Index 2 reservar as companion restriction lean — not a Ben/Time-only collapse.
• ≠ vender / sell. Sell: Recipient HAS goods; Price stays inside por. Earmark: Resource is ACC MeasureP of the restriction; para nueva tecnología is Purpose, not Price. No SWAP inversion.
• ≠ bet / apostar. Shared MeasureP packaging and a non-individual third of type ⟨s,t⟩. Split: bet’s third is settlement Content (Proposition); earmark’s is a use-property (RESTRICTED_FOR). *afectaron 14M que Trump gane — Purpose is not Settle(p).
• ≠ deduct / descontar / credit_FIN / charge_FEE / pay_GIVE. Shared MeasureP Hom available. Split: deduct’s por is Reason (JUSTIFIED_BY) with FROM decrement; credit_FIN writes ledger HAS_ON_BOOKS; chargeFEE / pay write levy or Appl_HAVE. Earmark tags a Resource; amount need not leave. Four para/pors: Purpose (earmark) ≠ Reason (deduct) ≠ Consideration (charge) ≠ Price (sell).
• Restriction-true is e2. A follow-up that denies spending, building the technology, transfer out of the reserve, or HAVE does not deny the earmark event. Un-earmark / reallocate (desafectar / reasignar) is a separate event that terminates e2.

  — Purpose stays para; Resource stays ACC
  asignar / destinar a — Goal cloth; do not merge

Voice introduces Agent with AUTHORITY(x,e) as a selectional / felicity conjunct — not a fifth argument. Presidents, legislatures, CFOs, DAOs, and statutes pass; bare persons need a hat; weather fails. Resource sits as Incremental Theme of the designation under ACC. Purpose attaches as Type B Purp/Res outside the first phase, spelled para. There is no Recipient HAVE shell and no ACC / DAT promotion of Purpose or Beneficiary as Goal. Putting a promotable a-Goal / DAT clitic in is how the allocate cloth (asignar / destinar a) is written — a different root packaging, not √EARMARK growing a listed Goal.

Spanish assigns ACC to the Resource only. Purpose, Beneficiary, Time, Source are PPs (para, marked a toward allocate, de, por). Quantity clitic en resumes the MeasureP. Passive promotes the Resource QP as a whole — never Amount alone, never U alone, never Purpose into subject, never Beneficiary (*El ministerio fue afectado 14M; *¿No se le afectaron 14M? as Goal).

Group B packaging · this tick Spanish Purpose only

Group B (Spanish, French, Italian) keeps the Goal vs Purpose Case split under Neg. Quote §11.2: “Spanish destinar / asignar fondos a vs reservar / afectar para; French allouer / affecter à vs réserver / flécher pour; Italian destinare / stanziare a vs accantonare / vincolare per. DAT / à / a is the allocate Goal and can cliticize; that clitic is a cheap Neg associate and is the Romance reason allocate looks more like grant than earmark does. en / ne tracks the quantity on both. y tracks a venue or dossier, not Goal. para / pour / per remains Purpose. destinar a is the hinge verb: Goal-leaning allocate, still not full HAVE unless coerced toward conceder / otorgar.”

This tick is Spanish earmark only — afectó 14M BTC para nueva tecnología (ACC Resource, para Purpose); *¿No se le afectaron 14M al ministerio? as Goal (DAT reject); Beneficiary does not promote. English twin live at earmark.html. Japanese twin live at earmark-ja.html. Goal twin live at allocate-goal-es.html. French twin live at earmark-fr.html. Italian twin live at earmark-it.html. Mandarin / Navajo — pointed, not deepened. Label speculation; do not fake elicitation.
