The scope of “secondary” imperfectivization in Bulgarian, Russian, and Upper Sorbian

Abstract

This paper has two purposes: (1) to seek the elimination of one particularly recurrent terminological ambiguity in studies of Slavic verbal aspect by defining what is vs. what should be meant by the term "secondary imperfectivization" and (2) to demonstrate that the term "secondary imperfectivization" does have a place in aspectological studies.
