This areal study inquires into the status of subject-predicate collocations, such as Korean /cam-i tulta/ “sleep-SUBJ enter = get asleep”, in a sample of typologically diverse Asian languages. After presenting diagnostic criteria for compounding and subjecthood in the surveyed languages, it thouroughly investigates Korean SPCs and shows that most diagnostic tests for compounding often prove irrelevant. Focalization tests, applied here to Korean and Mongolian data, seem however to yield cross-linguistically reliable indices to isolate frozen-argument collocations from free sequences. This study also gives insights regarding the “referential strategy routine” illustrated by SPCs, whereby something is predicated of an entity with the medium of an other entity related to the latter, and draws a parallel with the use of numeral classifiers.
