Abstract
The 4th basic sentence formula (B4) embodies a standard subject-noun-plus-verb “spark” plus two instances of flow. Like basic sentence B2, the main verb transfers action directly onto a noun object (No) in the predicate (stage one flow). Yet with B4, there is a second line of flow that extends “spark” further (stage two flow). This transfer goes from the noun object (No) to a second noun in the predicate, known as the indirect object noun “Ni.” Figure 6.1 displays B4 in stripped-down, core version form.
