Please clarify the "three-way aspectual opposition"!
I seriously struggle with getting around the following sentence:
"Proto-Indo-European had a three-way aspectual opposition, traditionally called "present", "aorist", and "perfect", which are thought to have been, respectively, imperfective, perfective, and stative (resultant state) aspects."
I think it is unclear, and arguable. Even though it is unclear what the statement really says, I find it generally unsettling when someone states something truth-tentative about a hypothetical language. I find it also highly arguable to cathegorise aorist as a grammatical aspect alltogether. Would it not rather be more correct to state that the present and perfect, imperfective and stative are aspects of the aorist, which is per definition without aspect? --Xactnorge (talk) 19:53, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
- Huh, the aorist is, as far as I am aware, perfective, so it has an aspect. What leads you to say it does not have aspect? — Eru·tuon 20:21, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
Aorist in Slovenian language
I think the source should be added in the chapter about aorist in south slavic languages. Was it really ever part of the Slovenian language? Aorista (talk) 19:18, 8 January 2020 (UTC)
Aorist in Turkish
Domuz eti yermisiniz? to the second person unambiguously is an offer. To inquire habit or objection, we say Domuz eti yiyormusunuz? Sigara içiyormusunuz? Dmermerci~enwiki (talk) 09:29, 28 July 2023 (UTC)
