Korean
Below is an example of a fully complemented clause and an embedded small clause in Korean. The small clause is bolded. In the fully complemented clause, the sentence would be grammatical whether the object "Mary" is marked with a nominative case or an accusative case. However, as the subject of the small clause, the case marking for the object is strictly accusative. This demonstrates that raising-to-object is optional from a complete clauses and necessary from small clauses.
