(to be at hand, to have): The subject of certain verbs is not someone who acts but a stimulus that prompts sensory or emotional feelings, like when thingsinterest someone,matter to someone,please someone orappeal to someone. In these cases, the experiencer can take theaccusative (e.g.interest) or thedative (e.g.appeal). The experiencer is expressed with thedative in the case ofhiányzik(“to be missing or missed by someone”),ízlik(“to taste good”),kell(“to be needed, necessary, or required”),tetszik(“to be appealing”), andvan/megvan(“to be had, to be owned by someone”).
If the experiencer is expressed with theaccusative, third-person objects (him, her, it, orthem) are considereddefinite, while first- and second-person objects (me, us, andyou), indefinite. For example, the verbérdekel can take the definite formérdekli őt(“he/she is interested”, literally“it interests him/her”) or the indefinite formérdekel engem/téged/minket(“I am, you are, we are interested”, literally“it interests me, you, us”). The formérdekellek means “you are interested in me” (literally, “I interest you”). — Similar verbs includezavar(“to be bothered by”) andizgat(“to be intrigued by”).[1]
