Definition
monoclausal strategies for the causative construction in which the causee in the causative event is coded differently depending on the valency of the corresponding base event. Example: in Turkish, the causee in a causative event is encoded in the Accusative Case if the base event is monovalent (Ali Hasan-t öl-dür-dü 'Ali killed Hasan [acc]'), and in the Dative Case if the base event is bivalent (Dişçi mektub-u müdür-e imzala-t-tí 'The dentist got the director [dat] to sign the letter').
