1. stative verb (상태동사)

continuous, no change of state for a long time

no end point(atelic) - start, stop(o), finish(x)

not normally occur in progressive aspect

can't occur with manner adverbs(how), imperative

ex) *she understood methodically, ex) *know it

no pseudo cleft

ex) *what bill did(동작) was resemble Tom

+ stative progressive

the operation is really costing a lot of money (emotional strength)

you're being stubborn (focusing on abnormal change)

the baby is resembling his father more and more (evolving change)

we are hoping you can explain this mess (polite tone)

 

2. dynamic verb (change of state, end point, repetitive - can occur in progressive aspect)

activity(process) - ex) Brenda drove toward(도착점을 명시x 단지 방향만) here, ex) simon treated her

go on for an indefinite time (no end point, atelic) - ex) Kim wiped the window and poured the milk

can't occur with finish(완성), but can with stop(중단) and start

accomplishment - ex) simon healed her, ex) Brenda drove to here

terminate in an end point (telic)

go on for a certain amount of time and ends with completion (implicate preliminary activity)

ex) peeled the carrot, repaired the toaster, built a house, performed the Third Partita, wrote a sonnet

can occur with start, stop, finish, but if it is used with stop, the accomplishment does not occur.

achievement

occur instantaneously, punctually with no preliminary activity(no duration)

ends as soon as it begins (end point, telic) - ex) Kim broke the window(한 번 만에도 부서질 수 있다)

differ from accomplishment in attaching much greater importance to the end point than earlier point

ex) finished her dissertation, arrived here, a goldfish died, got to Boston, find a solution, cross the line

can't occur with start and stop, but can with finish

 

3. expressing more than one type of lexical aspect

two semantic classes

ex) I see poorly(=I have poor vision) - stative

ex) I see a parking spot - achievement

with adding some constituents

adding prepositional phrase

ex) he runs - activity

ex) he runs (to the post office) - accomplishment

adding an object NP

ex) I sing a song(노래 한 개니까 end point) - accomplishment

ex) I sing songs(몇 개인지 안정해져 있으니 no end point) - activity

 

4. effect of lexical aspect

ex) John has written(accomplishment verb) only one novel since 1998(완성)

ex) John has owned(stative verb) only one novel since 1998(계속)
