Autocausative refers to a type of reflexive that denotes "in an overwhelming majority of cases, change of location or motion which the (human) referent causes by his own activity."[1] In this kind of event, "the mind or will of an animate entity initiates some movement of their own body [...] or a part thereof."[2] The (usually animated) "referent represented by the subject combines the activity of actor and undergoes a change of state like a patient/subject."[3] Some Spanish examples include "verbs of displacement," such as Script error: No such module "Lang". Template:Gloss, Script error: No such module "Lang". Template:Gloss, and Script error: No such module "Lang".
