In this paper we propose a unified account of ergativity in two unrelated languages with very different systems of marking grammatical relations. Both Chol (Mayan, Mexico) and Mẽbengokre (Jê, Brazil) have what appear to be aspect-based ergative splits. However, while in Mẽbengokre ergativity is found in verb stems which are formally nominal, ergativity in Chol is found in what can be shown to b...

In general linguistics, the functions of perfective and imperfective aspect have been thoroughly investigated in domain realis, especially past tense. However, there are languages which exhibit this sort contrast other domains, for example, imperative. The aspectual grams imperative may differ significantly from those documented realis. present paper, I argue that is case Lithuanian. build on s...

The relationship between future time and tense forms in Russian is complex. traditionally attributed to the certain cases do not refer time. Those have been previously presented as an inventory representing a plausible cognitive model and/or sphere of modality. In this article, we suggest data-driven approach applied spectrum meanings forms. We analyzed corpus data discovered that 44% perfectiv...

Starting from the relevant points of Croatian aspectual system, we present a basic scheme contrasts between perfective/imperfective opposition in and Pretérito Perfeito/Imperfeito Portuguese analyze narrative texts written by B2 level students, who are native speakers Croatian. Focused on “deviations”, try to identify specificities interlanguage question with regard use past verbal tenses, name...

The vast majority of prefixed roots fall into the perfective class, although there are some perfectives that are not prefixed. Imperfective verb forms are either unprefixed altogether, or possess a suffixal marker of imperfectivity (generally called the ‘secondary’ imperfective). The analytical problem is this: despite this apparently uniform effect on the interpretation of the tense morphology...

This course sets out with an examination of the role of events in accounting for inferential properties of modification. It presents a model of the logic of modification following the neo-Davidsonian mode of composition but reworking the Davidsonian framework. The approach is shown to accord with more intuitively appealing notions of event individuation and to afford a uniform treatment of indi...
