Subject: Locative-stative Verbs in Finnish and Hungarian
In some languages, locative verbs such as fill, cover and decorate accept both
a causative (1-3) and a stative variant (4-6):
1. John filled the bucket with sand.
2. John covered the baby with a blanket.
3. John decorated the cake with candles.
4. Sand filled the bucket.
5. A blanket covered the baby.
6. Candles decorated the cake.
I am looking for glossed translation of these two variants in Finnish and
Hungarian and specifically on the case markings of the location and locatum
arguments (i.e., the bucket/the baby/the cake and sand/the blanket/candles
respectively) in the stative variant.
thanks in advance,
Zehavit Segal
