<ul>
<li>In Classical Armenian, the voice category is expressed by the endings or a derivational causative suffix.</li>
<li>The morphological causative is a derivational category in Classical Armenian. Causatives are derived from base verbs with the help of a productive valency-increasing suffix <em>-ուց-</em>/<em>-owcՙ-</em> (or its rare variants <em>-ուս-</em>/<em>-ows-</em> and <em>-ուզ-</em>/<em>-owz-</em>). Causatives can be further marked by the inflectional voice as <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Act</code> or <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Pass</code>, which makes the voice a layered feature in Classical Armenian. The causative layer is identified as <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Voice[caus]</code> and invariably takes the value <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">Cau</code>.</li>

<li>Morphological causatives are typically derived from anticausative, experiential or agentive (intransitive) base verbs, while the causation of agentive transitive verbs is often expressed by the analytical causative (<em>տալ</em>/<em>tal</em> ‘to give’ + infinitive).</li>
