If we apply this approach to morphologically and syntactically ergative languages (Bittner and Hale<br clear='none'\/>\n1996), the spell-out-dependent hypothesis predicts that there should be three distinct types of split ergative systems, a prediction which<br clear='none'\/>\nis confirmed by the descriptive generalization in Coon 2012. A further prediction is that case splits should not be restricted to<br clear='none'\/>\nergative systems but should occur in accusative systems as well.
