PARTICIPLES, CONVERBS OR ASPECTUAL STEMS? (MAKING SENSE OF PARADIGMATIC UNITS IN LANGUAGES WITH FORM-CHANGING ASPECT MARKING)

KERIMOV Kerim Ramazanovich


The article touches on the problem of conditional character of nomination of the terms “participle” and “past verbal form” in verbal paradigms of Lezghin and English. By their prehistory, “participle” and “past verbal form” are transposits of the verb. Semantic structures of the past verbal form in Lezghin (with -z) and English Participle I (with - ing ), with the exception of root morphemes and word-changing affix of imperfectiveness, contain nothing else. We can call them authentic definitions, taking into account form-building status of the categories of tense/aspect, represented in these languages. They are just forms of the aspect and nothing else.
