> What Ken meant by "resolve" is not clear to me. It does not seem to be very relevant after all. At any rate, what was important to me is that for a certain type of verbs produced by a form (n a), all the information in (n) stayed latent and could be accessed later on by (a) at a convenient time. (The exact way it manages to work is still somewhat mysterious to me ; but it works).
