Az ige és vonzatainak kölcsönös meghatározottsága a nyelvhasználatban

Abstract

According to theoretical literature, the meaning of verbs determines the role of their arguments in the sentence. Arguments however, clarify which meaning of the verbs with multiple meanings need to be understood. This study presents the results of an online test which show what semantic features of the arguments are determined by verbs and what thematic role this makes the argument suitable for. It also highlights the semantic differences between the arguments of verbs with multiple meanings. Results of the investigation prove that the meaning of verbs determines the meaning of their arguments also in language use and the arguments clarify which meaning of the verbs with multiple meanings is present in the sentence. The study discusses pedagogical aspects, and it also promotes the teaching of the meaning of verbs, argument structure as well as the relationship between material and abstract reality at school.
