Aspect: An Introduction to the Study of Verbal Aspect and Related Problems Paperback - 1976
by Bernard Comrie
First line
Since the term 'aspect' tends to be less familiar to students of linguistics than are terms for the other verbal categories such as tense or mood, it is as well, before giving a definition of aspect, to consider some examples of aspectual distinctions in languages likely to be familiar to readers, in order to provide some factual material against which it will be possible to view the more theoretical part of the discussion.
From the rear cover
An introduction to the general linguistic study of aspect. Topics covered include the relation of tense and aspect, the morphology and the semantics of aspect, and structuralist and philosophical approaches. Dr. Comrie draws his examples particularly from English and the Slavonic and Romance languages, but also from Arabic, Chinese, Welsh, Greek and a variety of others.This is the first study of aspect, considered as a general linguistic phenomenon. It is intended for students of individual languages as well as for students of linguistics.
