Abstract:

This volume contains eight papers, all presented at the 9th International 
Conference on the Structure of Hungarian (University of Debrecen, 2009), 
addressing a great variety of topics in the syntax, morphology, phonology, 
and semantics of Hungarian, and also offering discussion of related 
phenomena in other languages. The volume includes a syntax-based analysis 
of Hungarian external causatives in the framework of the Minimalist Program 
(MP); argumentation for the lack of phonological or acoustic evidence for 
secondary stress in Hungarian; an MP approach to a Hungarian modal 
construction with a counterfactual, reproaching reading; empirical arguments 
for assuming that in the case of embedded sentences factivity is irrelevant 
for syntax, and clauses are differentiated by referentiality; a comprehensive 
semantic account of result states in Hungarian; a claim that certain 
paradigmatic/morphophonological variation in the Hungarian verbal paradigm 
is caused by conflicting paradigmatic pressures; a purely interface-based MP 
account of the syntax of identificational focus in Hungarian; and an analysis 
of arbitrarily interpreted null subjects in Hungarian with third person, plural 
agreement on the finite and infinitival verb. The volume will be of interest not 
just to scholars working on Hungarian, but to a general audience of generative 
linguists.
