在本文中，我研究了动态谓词的方面行为，即涉及一个参与的“变化”或潜在变化的谓词，包括状态变化，运动和消费/破坏谓词。我将远程延伸到远程知识的工作中融入了动态谓词，以建立更广泛的方面行为。源自事件之间的同态和一些参与谓词提供显式约束的事件。三个实体：她称为增量主题动词（1a）的增量主题（例如，消费动词），受影响的属性参与状态变更预测（1B）或运动动词（1C）。
In this paper I examine the aspectual behavior of dynamic predicates, i.e. predicates that involve some “change” or potential change in one participant, including change-of-state, motion, and consumption/destruction predicates. I focus on the factors governing durativity in dynamic predicates, which I integrate into previous work on telicity to build a broader picture of their aspectual behavior. A considerable amount of recent work has argued that the telicity of dynamic predicates arises from a homomorphism between the event and some participant in the event for which the predicate supplies an explicit bound. For example, Tenny (1987, 1992, 1994) argues that events are “measured out” via a mapping between the event and one of three entities: incremental themes of what she calls incremental theme verbs (1a) (e.g. verbs of consumption), a property of an affected participant in change-of-state predicates (1b), or the path of motion verbs (1c).
