This paper argues that the possibility of double-object constructions
in a language is dependent upon the presence of an abstract HAVE morpheme;
if a language does not have HAVE, there can be no double-object construction.
A more elaborated presentation of this thesis is found in the ms. above,
"Possession and the double object construction."
