It will be claimed that given the highly situationally restricted context triggering the Absentive meaning under any of the available construals, the occurrence of the Ab-sentive is not a grammatical category. Nor is there a viable diachronic relation with the PP-Progressive in German and other languages such as English. Admittedly, this leaves unaccounted for the fine gradual distance-semantic difference between the Bare Infinitive and the PP-Progressive in German. What appears to provide a further argument against the general categorical status of this construal is the fact that reading does not emerge under any construction type in the Slavic languages.

Absent arguments on the Absentive: an exercise in silent syntax. Grammatical category or just pragmatic inference?
