Transitive and unergative resultative predicates in Korean are nonfinite CP structures which might contain a null little pro, whereas the resultative phrases in unaccusative resultatives are adverbs. They all adjoined to VP. The subject of an infinitive in English cannot usually be an overt NP, so PRO has often been taken to be in complementary distribution with overt pronouns. The most relevant kind of example of a deficient/weak pronoun for the null subject of the transitive/unergative resultative in Korean is a little pro. Notice that pro can be replaced as an overt inalienable possession, which means that the latter is a deficient constituent. The weaker the pronoun is, the more likely it is to be null. In this vein, the deficient/weak pronoun must be picked over strong pronouns such as the overt pronoun when there is a choice between the two (Satık 2022b). This is captured via Cardinaletti and Starke’s(1999) economy constraint to minimize syntactic structure. The transitive verbs such as twutulita ‘hammer’ and talita ‘iron’ do not imply any change of state or any result. Nevertheless the sentences certainly imply some result when napcakhakey ‘flat’ and ppasppashakey ‘stiff’ appear as their respective transitive predicate. To reiterate, such resultatives are path and telicity related constructions with pro.
