Then, based on new evidence from the syntactic derivation of intransitive compound verbs in the past tense in Kurdish, and consequently, by examining the manner of reviewing the absolute case in these constructions, it is argued that approach (b) to ergative construction has greater empirical and theoretical adequacy, and this in turn is an attempt to provide a more natural syntactic derivation for ergative constructions. absolutive Based on the theoretical assumptions in this article, which takes the later version of the Minimalist Program as presented in Chomsky (2007, 2008) as a criterion, the mechanism of reviewing agent and patient case is as follows: (Refer to the image on the page) Diagram (1) Therefore, in an agent-patient language, the agent case of the subject of both transitive and intransitive clauses is reviewed (assigned) by the tense head in the specifier position of the vP (verbal shell), while the patient case of the noun phrase object is reviewed by the head of the verbal shell.
