Reanalyzing the morphology and semantics of verbal plural marking in Quechan

In this paper, we re-investigate the morphology and semantics of verbal plurality in Quechan (Yuma). We propose a systematic account in which one marker of verbal plurality only targets a particular argument of the verb, but others are better analyzed as expressing pluractionality. There are two markers of pluractionality: one that has scope over O or the event and one that has scope over O, S/A, or the event. We show that both pluractionals are examples of outer pluractionality
