| Shrnutí: | This paper examines the realization of aspect in Hungarian eventive nominalizations. In the verbal domain, aspect is expressed by preverbs, which act as boundedness markers; they indicate telicity, and, when occurring in telic environments, perfectivity. Eventive nominals morphologically derived from verbs can also be associated with preverbs. In this case, the preverbs maintain the same values as with verbs. This leads to the conclusion that, in Hungarian, grammatical aspect is valid category in the nominal domain, as has recently been shown for various other languages. The paper also provides a syntactic approach of the organization of the aspectual projections with verbs and deverbal nominals, which accounts for the fact that preverbs cannot be separated from nominals, whereas they can when occurring with verbs. |
