This book studies how Hungarian verbs can occur with implicit
subject and direct object arguments in a complex approach. On the
basis of the critical evaluations of the previous literature on
implicit arguments, analyses of a wide spectrum of data from
various direct sources, and theoretical explanations, all of which
were supported by systematic metatheoretical considerations, it
concludes that in Hungarian, verbs do not vary as to whether they
can be used with implicit arguments or not, but they vary as to the
manner in which they can occur with such arguments. In other words,
they vary in terms of the lexical and grammatical constraints which
are placed on them, and in what contexts they can be used with
lexically unrealised arguments. Although the cognitive principle of
relevance guides the licensing and interpretation processes of
implicit arguments, the variety of their occurrences does not rest
solely on the presumption of relevance but on the different
lexical, grammatical, and pragmatic properties of Hungarian and its
use, as well as on their various interactions. So, it is only by
operating together that a grammar and an adequate pragmatic theory
can account for the occurrences and identification mechanisms of
implicit arguments.
