PREPOSITIONAL DEVERBATIVES IN THE TEMPORAL-ASPECTUAL-TAXIS CATEGORIAL SITUATION

Abstract

The article deals with the question of the functioning of prepositional deverbatives in temporal-aspectual-taxis categorical situations in the German language. The article defines the term “prepositional deverbatives” and identifies various types of temporal-aspectual-taxis categorical situations of simultaneity (primary, secondary) and asynchronicity. The examined statements with the deverbatives of the aspectual-verbogenic semantics are syncretic temporal-aspectual-taxis complexes complicated by various values of logical conditioning (causality, conditionality, concessiveness, finality, instrumentality, etc.). Deverbatives with temporal-taxis prepositions actualize the taxis values of simultaneity (full, partial) and asynchronicity (strict, non-strict).
