What is an "argument"?

In linguistics, an argument is a word or phrase that provides necessary information to complete the meaning of a verb or a predicate in a sentence. Arguments typically include the subject and any direct or indirect objects required by the verb. For example, in the sentence "The chef cooked a delicious meal for the guests," "The chef" is the subject argument, "a delicious meal" is the direct object argument, and "for the guests" is an indirect object argument. Each argument plays a crucial role in conveying the complete meaning of the action and how different entities are involved. Understanding arguments helps clarify the relationships between verbs and the entities that participate in the actions or states described in a sentence.
