It has been observed that many languages exhibit a semantic, syntactic, or morphological correlation between the direct objects of transitive verbs and the surface subjects of certain inactive intransitives. The Unaccusative Hypothesis (UH) proposes, within the framework of Relational Grammar, tpat final subjects of this type are initial direct objects. This paper shows that several morphological and syntactic processes in Georgian lefer to just these nominals, thus supporting the UH. It further shows that, although the semantic relations of nominals to verbs is not irrelevant, those morphological and syntactic processes which refer to initial direct objects cannot be stated simply on the basis of semantics. *
