DEVELOPMENT OF THE CATEGORY OF IMPERFECTIVITY IN THE HISTORICAL PARADIGM WITH THE PROTO-SLAVIC ROOT *PEI- / *POI-

Abstract

Aim. We describe the development of the category of imperfectivity in the historical paradigm with the proto-slavic root *pei- / *poi-, and analyze species oppositions with the participation of the verb poiti and verbs derived from it. Methodology. Use is made of the methods of observation, description, generalization and interpretation of results. Results. The paper analyzes polynomial species correlations, which include imperfect forms produced by different models. The factors that determine the transformation of the original species correlations are revealed. We describe the process of parallel formation of species forms, the result of which is the emergence of similarly sounding, but semantically non-identical, verbs in the historical paradigm with the proto-slavic root *pei- / *poi-. The analysis shows that the development of the category of imperfectivity is one of the most important factors that influenced the formation in the historical paradigm with the proto-slavic root *pei- / *poi-. Research implications. The research contributes to the study of the formation of the verb category of the species in the Russian language. The research results can find application in the university practice of teaching linguistic disciplines.
