Se presenta evidencia morfológica y semántica de que el contraste entre las formas impersonales y activas es de naturaleza flexiva y no derivativa: esta categoría es obligatoria; se expresa en todos los miembros de una categoría léxica; es regular, con una semántica compositiva, predecible y productiva (Mel&#8217;&#269;uk 1993: 2). El cambio de diátesis en la Voz Impersonal no altera la estructura de los roles semánticos del verbo, como ocurriría en la derivación de un nuevo lexema, sino que afecta únicamente el sujeto como argumento gramatical, suprimiendo su expresión.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract Impersonal verbs in Mazatlán Mazatec (ISO 639-3: vmz, Glottolog: maza1296), an Otomanguean language spoken in the Cañada district of Oaxaca, are inflections of voice that contrast with Active Voice. Morphological and semantic evidence is presented to show that the contrast between Impersonal and Active Voice is inflectional rather than derivational in nature. This category is obligatory, it is expressed in every member of a particular lexical category, and its alteration is regular, with a compositional, predictable, and productive semantic. (Mel&#8217;&#269;uk 1993: 2). The change in diathesis within the impersonal voice does not affect the structure of the semantic roles of the verb, as would occur in a derivation of a new lexeme; instead, it affects only the subject as a grammatical argument, suppressing its expression.]]></p></abstract>
