looking at [[Sentences in English cannot express both volitionality and non-volitionality for one action. This is indicated by the following semantically ill-formed sentence using both kinds of adverbs: d. #'I accidentally kicked her doll intentionally.']]
This meaning can (at least in some dialect areas) be carried by the used of the phrase 'accidentally on-purpose'. E.g., #'I kicked her doll accidentally on-purpose' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.163.206.101 (talk) 13:57, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
