Aspektualität

More about the book

This synchronic study presents a new onomasiological, frame-theoretical model for the classification and interpretation of aspectual characteristics of facts. Differently from traditional approaches, that differentiate between the grammatical and lexical aspect of the verb and analyze the grammatical aspect by looking at only one language and by raising semasiological questions, this study understands aspectualityto bea content category that comprises the lexical aspect and asserts itself across the languages.
