Aspect homonymous

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aspect homonym is a technical term from Russian grammar . These are verbs in which the verb stem in the completed and in the unfinished form (technical language: in the perfective and in the imperfective aspect ) is the same, i.e. is a homonym . Often these verbs have the infix {-ова / -ova} as a word element .

Examples of aspect-homonymous verbs:

  • ранить ránit ' "wound, hurt"
  • обещать obeščát ' "promise"
  • фотографировать fotografírovat ' "photograph"

Since the aspect is a central element of the Russian language , it needs to be clarified by other means:

  1. by the word accent :
    • Example rodit ' родить "give birth": oná rodíla "she was about to give birth", oná rodilá (pf.) "She gave birth",
  2. Adding an extra prefix to mark the perfect aspect
    • Example сфотографировать sfotografírovat ' "photographing" (pf.) (Additional marking as resultative )
  3. secondary formation of the past tense
    • The formation of the past tense verbs carried out at the infix {} OVA by doubling the infix {-овывать / -o-vy-vat '}, thus: организовать organizovát' (. IPF, pf.), Организовывать organizóvyvat ' (IPF. ) "to organize"
