Russian verb любить - полюбить The purpose of this entry is 1) to practice my writing 2) to hear some comments from my Russian co-workers,if anyone is interested to share their opinion and practice their writing. 3) expess my thoughts on grammatical problems of the Russian language. Please, feel free to correct! First of all , we need to understand that this grammatical category is considered to be one of the most difficult. A lot of problems are still being discussed. Most of the Russian verbs form an aspectual pair. There are some, though, that prefer to stay "single", either imperfective or perfective due to their semantics. It's cristal clear for me , that verbs denoting state can't form perfective , as their state can't transit to a new state, thus designating an event ( Russian teacher know what I am talking about) Those verbs are иметь / стоить / значить / принадлежать. But how about this verb любить - полюбить??? Almost in every study book you will see them presented as an aspectual pair. Now I can see how easily you can be trapped. Why can't it be an aspectual pair like нравиться - понравиться / казаться - показаться, expressing the beginning point of a process ? That's where Maslov's criteria comes handy, and you can easly see why it can't be an aspectual pair. Thank you for reading and correcting!!!
