Complement clauses with Primary-B verbs, and with adjectives

Complement clauses can function as subject for verbs from the ANNOYING type, as object for LIKING, ATTENTION, THINKING and DECIDING, and in either object or post-object slot for SPEACKING. Some adjectives can take a complement clause in subject and others in post-predicate position. Only some verbs from the COMPARING and RELATING types may (like some verbs from MAKING and HELPING) have complement clauses in both subject and object relations.
