'''S-selection''' is the conditions which a [[head]] imposes on its immediate context through its [[argument structure]], i.e. the [[theta-role]]s it assigns. This is called s(emantic)-selection.

=== Example ===

the fact that the verb ''to persuade'' selects a subject denoting an actor (or [[agent]]), and two complements, one denoting the person who is the action's target and one denoting a proposition (cf. ''he persuaded me to go''), is considered a matter of s-selection. S-selection is distinguished from c(ategorial)-selection, the conditions imposed in terms of categorical features (e.g. N,V). It is a point of debate whether and to what extent c-selection can be derived from s-selection (e.g. by rules of canonical structural realization). Next to s- and c-selection, some assume m(orphological)-selection, which applies word-internally.
