Alanytárgykiegészít

Alanytárgykiegészítő is a grammatical term in Hungarian linguistics. It refers to a type of complement that completes the meaning of a verb and also relates to the subject of the sentence. This concept is distinct from simple direct objects or adverbial complements. An alanytárgykiegészítő typically describes the state or condition of the subject as a result of the action performed by the verb.

For instance, in the sentence "A gyerek elfáradt.", "elfáradt" (became tired) is a verb, and "A gyerek" (the child) is the subject. If we consider a sentence like "A gyerek elaludta magát.", "magát" (himself) functions as a reflexive pronoun object, but the action of "elaludta" (fell asleep) directly impacts the state of the subject. However, the concept of alanytárgykiegészítő is more nuanced and often involves predicates that express a change of state or a result attributed to the subject.

A common example cited in Hungarian grammar is when a verb implies a modification of the subject's state. Consider a sentence where the subject undergoes a transformation or attains a certain state due to the verb's action. The alanytárgykiegészítő would be the element that defines this resulting state of the subject. It is a complex grammatical category that requires careful analysis of the verb-argument relationship and the predicative nature of the complement. The precise definition and examples can vary slightly among different grammatical schools of thought in Hungarian linguistics.
