Beschreibungen/Notizen

• In the light of a recent proposal about the aspectual status of the English Simple Present, the history of present tense morphology in French is re-examined, comparing developments in other Romance languages and in English. In particular it is asked why in modern French there has not been grammaticalization of "progressive" aspect.
