本文认为，捷克保留了当前的相关性/强调的表达和第三人称复合过去形式的中性过去之间的语义区别，直到十六世纪后期。第三人称助词的存在（表示当前的相关性/强调）与不存在（中性的过去式）表达了这种区别。这一假设的依据是14世纪晚期的两部叙事作品（Asenath和The Life of Adam and Eve），以及1365年至1615年间捷克妇女写的或写给她们的信件。统计分析的结果作为支持的假设，它建议，目前的相关性/重点和中性的第三人称之间的持续区别是部分负责的事实，即双向使用的未完成动词从来没有成为一个主要的使用模式，在捷克语，与俄罗斯相比，在那里的时态系统是减少相对较早。
This article argues that Czech retained a semantic distinction between the expression of current relevance/emphasis and a neutral preterit in third-person compound preterit forms until the late sixteenth century. The distinction was expressed by the presence (expressing current relevance/emphasis) vs. absence (neutral preterit) of third-person auxiliaries. The hypothesis is based on data from two late fourteenth-century narratives (Asenath and The Life of Adam and Eve) and from letters written by or to Czech women from 1365 to 1615. The results of statistical analyses are presented as support for the hypothesis, and it is suggested that the continued distinction between current relevance/emphasis and a neutral preterit in the third person is in part responsible for the fact that the two-way use of imperfective verbs never became a major usage pattern in Czech, in contrast with Russian, where the tense system was reduced relatively early.
