Tenny(1987, 1994) argues that it is aspectual component of thematic roles that governs their linking to syntax. That is, only aspectual structure is visible to syntax so that syntax needs to see not the thematic roles but the aspectual structure only. Tenny(1987) proposes 'The Aspectual Interface Hypothesis' saying that 'the universal principles of mapping between thematic structure and syntactic argument structure are governed by aspectual properties relating to measuring-out'. For measuring events, Tenny(1987, 1994) suggests that the internal direct argument be a measurer delimiting events, whereas Wyngaerd(2001) insists that resultative phrases delimit events. In this paper, I assume that all the resultative phrases have an aspectual role, and suggest the constraint on resultatives: resultative phrases have an aspectual role TERMINUS. With this constraint, I expect to constrain the possible resultative phrases and also substitute another constraint on resultatives such as Further Specification Constraint. I also suggest that the verbs of resultative construction have an aspectual structure [MEASURE, TERMINUS] or [PATH, TERMINUS]. In a sentence Kim ran into the room, for example, the scale for measuring out would be the path into the room. This exactly means that the measurer of the event described by the verb run is the implicit path and explicit terminus. Thus, I conclude that the measurer of events is the resultative small clauses rather than direct internal arguments or resultative phrases.
