  • Greek Verb Aspect
    Greek Verb Aspect Paul Bell & William S. Annis Scholiastae.org∗ February 21, 2012 The technical literature concerning aspect is vast and difficult. The goal of this tutorial is to present, as gently as possible, a few more or less commonly held opinions about aspect. Although these opinions may be championed by one academic quarter and denied by another, at the very least they should shed some light on an abstruse matter. Introduction The word “aspect” has its roots in the Latin verb specere meaning “to look at.” Aspect is concerned with how we view a particular situation. Hence aspect is subjective – different people will view the same situation differently; the same person can view a situation differently at different times. There is little doubt that how we see things depends on our psychological state at the mo- ment of seeing. The ‘choice’ to bring some parts of a situation into close, foreground relief while relegating others to an almost non-descript background happens unconsciously. But for one who must describe a situation to others, this choice may indeed operate consciously and deliberately. Hence aspect concerns not only how one views a situation, but how he chooses to relate, to re-present, a situation. A Definition of Aspect But we still haven’t really said what aspect is. So here’s a working definition – aspect is the dis- closure of a situation from the perspective of internal temporal structure. To put it another way, when an author makes an aspectual choice in relating a situation, he is choosing to reveal or conceal the situation’s internal temporal structure.

The system permits Each operator controls Use the present tense --to show present states or conditions: The test program is ready.

Summary 1. Definition: A participle shares two parts of speech. It is a verbal adjective. As an adjective it has gender, number, and case. As a verb it has tense and voice, and may take an object (in whatever case the verb takes). 2. Uses: In general there are three uses: attributive, circumstantial, and supplementary. Attributive: with the article, the participle is used as a noun or adjective. Examples: @Ê §P@<JgH, J Ð<J", Ò :X88T< PD`<@H. Circumstantial: without the article, but in agreement with a noun or pronoun (expressed or implied), whether a subject or an object in the sentence. This is an adjectival use. The circumstantial participle expresses: TIME: (when, after, while) [:", "ÛJ\6", :gJ">b] CAUSE: (since) [Jg, ñH] MANNER: (in, by) CONDITION: (if) [if the condition is negative with :Z] CONCESSION: (although) [6"\, 6"\BgD] PURPOSE: (to, in order to) future participle [ñH] GENITIVE ABSOLUTE: a noun / pronoun + a participle in the genitive form a clause which gives the circumstances of the action in the main sentence.

  • On Four Differences Between Two Metaphorical Expressions of Future
    63 佐渡一邦 On Four Differences between Two Metaphorical Expressions of Future Kazukuni SADO* Abstract The aim of this paper is to clarify the differences between two types of expressions whose forms are in the present, but express a future event. The simple present and present in present are compared with regard to four perspectives: modality, human endeavor, present relevance, and proximity to the present. We may conclude from research that the simple present allows only modalization, is neutral to human endeavor, has much stronger relevance to the present moment and is neutral to the distance from the time of utterance, while the present in present allows both types of modality, expresses the results of human endeavor and although is less related to the present moment, is likely to describe the near future. 0. Introduction Most of us would accept that verb tenses in the English language are far from simple. The expression of a future event, for example, is not necessarily expressed in the future tense. The use of the present tense to express the future is well explained as “futurate” in Huddleston and Pullum (2002) and elaborated further in Sado (2016). However, we are of the view that English has a future tense and thus, it seems no longer appropriate to use the term, ”futurate” in our discussion as Sado (2016) did. Sado (2017:60) replaced the term with “present of futurity” to refer to all present tense forms that are employed to express events in the future. This discrepancy between form and meaning is explained by Huddleston and Pullum (2002) in terms of knowledge in the present like schedules of public transportation as thus illustrated in the example below from Kreidler (2014:111).

  • The Spanish Pronominal Clitic System
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Alicante The Spanish pronominal clitic system Luis Pineda Ivan Meza Instituto de Investigaciones en Matemáticas Division of Informatics Aplicadas y en Sistemas (IIMAS) University of Edinburgh Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México [email protected] (UNAM) [email protected] Resumen: En este artículo se presenta un modelo del sistema de pronombres clíticos del español. Se presenta una revisión detallada del fenómeno incluyendo la llamada “subida de clíticos” tanto simple como compleja, así como el fenómeno relacionado de los reflexivos, y también las formas impersonales de la pasiva-refleja y la impersonal-activa. Se presenta también un análisis del estatus representacional de los pronombres clíticos y se postula un modelo dual en el que mientras los enclíticos son inflexiones, los proclíticos se realizan como unidades léxicas independientes y por lo mismo son clíticos propiamente. Se presenta también la formalización del modelo en Head- driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG); para esto la maquinaria estándar de HPSG se extiende con un esquema de combinación sintáctica, la regla Head-Proclitic Rule y el principio de clíticos. Este principio establece que en las oraciones bien formadas que incluyen pronombres clíticos todo dominio clítico se encuentra bajo el alcance de un clítico fonológico. Estas nociones se introducen también en el presente artículo. En particular, los dominios clíticos se forma sobre las operaciones de cliticización, composición y subsumsión de clíticos, que también se presentan en este artículo. La teoría ha sido validada mediante la programación de un sistema prototipo en el ambiente Linguistics Knowledge Building (LKB), el cual también se describe en el presente artículo.
