I. 5. Classification of the English Verb
I. 1. The General Meaning of the Verb.
The verb is a part of speech which denotes an action (“walk”, “speak”, “play”), process (“sleep”, “wait”, “live”) or relation (“consist”, “resemble”, “lack”).
I. 2. The Grammatical Categories of the Verb in English.
Here are the grammatical categories of the English verb:
FINITUDE →
Finite forms
vs.
Non-finite forms (Infinitive, Gerund, Participle I (the Present Participle), Participle II (the Past Participle))
Finite forms always perform the function of the predicate of the sentence. They have the following grammatical categories:
1. PERSON →1st vs. 2nd vs. 3rd
2. NUMBER →Singular (sg) vs. Plural (pl)
3. TENSE → Past vs. Present vs. Future
4. ASPECT → Continuous vs. Non-continuous
5. PHASE → Perfect vs. Non-perfect
6. VOICE → Active vs. Passive
7. MOOD → Indicative vs. Imperative vs. Oblique *(Subjunctive I, Subjunctive II,
Suppositional & Conditional)
*According to Academician V.V. Vinogradov’s conception.
Non-finite forms perform a variety of functions in the sentence.*
* Non-finite forms are to be looked into in the corresponding part of this work. Here we just mention their functions.
The infinitive may be the subject, the predicative (i.e. part of a compound predicate), the object, the attribute, the adverbial modifier of purpose or result. Cases when it may be treated as the predicate of the sentence are very few.
The infinitive has the following grammatical categories:
1. ASPECT → Continuous vs. Non-continuous
2. PHASE → Perfect vs. Non-perfect
3. VOICE → Active vs. Passive
Gerund may be the subject, the predicative (i.e. part of a compound predicate), the object, the attribute, the adverbial modifier of time, manner, cause, attending circumstances and some others. Its grammatical categories are:
1. PHASE → Perfect vs. Non-perfect
2. VOICE → Active vs. Passive
Participle I (the Present Participle) may be part of a Continuous Tense verb-form, the attribute or the adverbial modifier of time, manner, cause, attending circumstances and some others. Here are its grammatical categories:
1. PHASE → Perfect vs. Non-perfect
2. VOICE → Active vs. Passive
Participle II (the Past Participle) may be part of a Perfect Tense verb-form, part of a Passive Voice verb-form, the attribute or the adverbial modifier of time, manner, condition, concession. It has no grammatical categories, i.e. it is unchangeable.
I. 3. Basic Verb Forms.
Following the list of the grammatical categories of the verb-forms, we can make up a set of all possible grammatical forms of a verb – the so-called “grammatical paradigm of a verb”.
Here is the paradigm of the finite forms of the verb “give” (an irregular verb) (Indicative Mood only): “I give.” “He gives.” “I am giving.” “He is giving.” “We are giving.” “I have given.” “He has given.” “I have been giving.” “He has been giving.” “I am given.” “He is given.” “We are given.” “I am being given.” “He is being given.” “We are being given.” “I have been given.” “He has been given.” “I gave.” “I was giving.” “They were giving.” “I had given.” “I had been giving.” “I was given.” We were given.” “I was being given.” “We were being given.” “I had been given.” “I shall give.” “He will give.” “I shall be giving.” “He will be giving.” “I shall have given.” “They will have given.” “I shall be given.” “He will be given.” “I shall have been given.” “He will have been given.”
Can you explain the grammatical meaning of the given verb-forms?
The present paradigm enables us to single out the three basic verb-forms used to build all possible synthetic and analytical verb-forms: 1. “give” – the plain stem of the verb (the infinitive without the particle “to”), 2. “gave” – the Past Simple Tense form, 3. “given” – the Past Participle form.
On top of these, some grammarians also mention the fourth verb-form as well – 4. “giving” – the Present Participle form, but it can hardly be termed basic since it is made up after the pattern “give + -ing”.
N.B. Regular verbs have homonymous forms of the 2nd (the Past Simple Tense) and the 3rd (the Past Participle) forms. They are built up after the pattern “V + -ed”, e.g. “wish – wished – wished”.
I. 4. Spelling of “-ing”, “-ed” and “-(e)s” Verb-forms.
Pronunciation of “-ed” and “-(e)s” Verb-forms.
V + -ing–Participle I and Gerund Verb-forms
Before adding “-ing”
1) The mute “-e” is dropped
E.g. “skate – skating”
N.B. By way of exception the rule does not apply to the verbs “dye – dyeing” and “singe – singeing” so as to differentiate them from the ing-forms of “die – dying” and “sing – singing”.
2) The final single consonant letter is doubled if it is preceded by a single vowel letter of a stressed syllable.
E.g. “stop – stopping”, “nod – nodding”, “permit – permitting”, “refer – referring”.
But “look – looking”, “limit – limiting”.
N.B. In British English the final “-l” and, in some words, “-p” are always doubled after a single vowel letter, whereas in American English they stay single. Keep in mind that Microsoft Office programmes stick to the rules of American English spelling.
E.g. “travel – travelling (Br. E.) / traveling (Am. E.),
“worship – worshipping (Br. E.) / worshiping (Am. E.).
3) The final “-ie” changes into “-y”
E.g. “lie – lying”, “die – dying”.
V + -ed – Participle II Verb-form
The inflexion “-ed” is added to the stem of the verb, but one should mind the following:
1) Only “-d” is added to stems ending in “-e”
E.g. “skate – skated”, “free – freed”
2) The final “-y” changes into “i” if preceded by a consonant but remains unchanged when it follows a vowel.
E.g. “cry – cried”, “reply – replied”, “play – played”, “stay – stayed”.
3) The final single consonant letter is doubled if it is preceded by a single vowel letter of a stressed syllable.
E.g. “stop – stopped”, “admit – admitted”
But “looked”, “limited”.
N.B. In British English the final “-l” and, in some words, “-p” are always doubled after a single vowel letter, whereas in American English they stay single.
E.g. “travel – travelled (Br. E.) / traveled (Am. E.),
“worship – worshipped (Br. E.) / worshiped (Am. E.).
The suffix “-ed” is pronounced in three ways:
1) [ɪd] when the stem of the verb ends in the dental consonants [d] or [t].
E.g. “skate – skated ['skeɪtɪd]”, “decide – decided [dɪ'saɪdɪd].
2) [d] when the stem ends in
a voiced consonant (except [d]), e.g. “live – lived ['lɪvd]”,
a sonant (sonorant) – [w, r, j, l, m, n, ŋ], e.g. “travel – traveled ['træv(ə)ld],
or a vowel, e.g. “stay – stayed [steɪd].
3) [t] when the stem ends in a voiceless consonant (except [d]).
E.g. “talk – talked [tɔ:kt]”, “stop – stopped [stɔpt]”.
V + -(e)s – The 3rd person singular Present Simple Tense Verb-Form
There are spelling and pronunciation rules for the “-(e)s” forms of verbs.
“-s” is added in the majority of cases, e.g. “speak–speaks”, “bring–brings”, “define–defines”, and is pronounced [-s] after voiceless consonants and [-z] after voiced consonants, sonants (sonorants) and vowels.
“-es” is added:
1) if the inflexion is pronounced as a separate syllable, which is necessary when the marker of plurality “-s” is to be dissociated from the preceding sibilant (the consonants [t∫, dʒ, ∫, ʒ, s, z] by means of [ɪ]: “fetch – fetches [fet∫ – 'fet∫ɪz]”, “rush – rushes [rʌ∫ – 'rʌ∫ɪz]”.
However, if a verb already ends in an “-e”, only “-s” is added in spelling: “lose – loses [lu:z – 'lu:zɪz]”, “catch – catches [kæt∫ – 'kæt∫ɪz]”.
2) if the verb-stem ends in “-y” preceded by a consonant, “-y” changes to “-i” and the suffix “-es” is added: “worry – worries”, “marry – marries”, “fly – flies”, “try – tries”.
But if the stem of the verb ends in “-y” preceded by a vowel, there is no changing of “-y” and only “-s” is added: “play – plays”.
3) if the stem of the verb ends in “-o”: “go – goes [gəʊ – gəʊz]”, “do – does [du: - dʌz]”.
I. 5. Classification of the English Verb.
In order to master the use of the English verbs one should differentiate between the following classes of verbs.
1. Terminative vs. Durative
Предельные ↔ Непредельные
Terminative verbs imply a limit beyond which the action cannot continue.
e.g. “open”, “close”, “bring”, “break”.
Durative verbs imply no such limit with the action going on indefinitely.
e.g. “live”, “speak”, “know”, “sit”.
2. Dynamic (Actional) vs Stative (Statal)
Динамичные (Активного Действия) ↔ Статичные (Состояния)
Dynamic verbs denote actions and as such admit of the Continuous forms.
Stative verbs denote a variety of states – those of physical perceptions (“hear”, “see”, etc.); emotions (“respect”, “like”, “love”, “adore”, “dislike”, “hate”, etc); wish (“wish”, “want”, “desire”, etc); results of mental activity (“doubt”, “know”, “mind” (“возражать”), “”recall”, “recognize”, “regard” (and its synonyms), “remember”, “trust”, “understand”, etc); relations (“apply”, “be”, “belong”, “concern”, “consist”, “contain”, “depend”, “differ”, “equal”, “fit”, “have”, “include”, “involve”, “lack”, “matter”, “need”, “owe”, “own”, “remain”, require”, etc.); and other miscellaneous states (“agree”, “allow”, “appear”, “astonish”, “claim”, “consent”, “envy”, “fail (to do smth)”, “find”, “forbid”, “forgive”, “intend”, “interest”, “keep (doing smth)”, “manage (to do smth), “mean”, “object”, “please”, “prefer”, “prevent”, “puzzle”, refuse”, “remind”, “satisfy”, “seem” (and its synonyms), “succeed”, “suit”, “surprise”, “tend”, “value”, etc) – and normally do not admit of the Continuous forms.
Due to polysemy some verbs can be dynamic in one meaning and stative in another, cf. “think” – “считать, полагать (что …)” and “обдумывать”.
3. Regular vs. Irregular
Правильные ↔ Неправильные
The regular verbs form their Past Simple Tense and Past Participle by means of the inflexion “-ed” added to the plain stem of the verb. This is the largest group going back to the Germanic week verbs, and the pattern “stem + -ed” is the productive one according to which all new verbs form their Past Simple Tense and Past Participle.
The irregular verbs have their fixed Past Simple Tense and Past Participle forms built after a variety of patterns going back to the Germanic strong verbs. These are about 250 in number, but they are the most frequent and indispensable.
Here are some examples of the possible three-forms-of-the-verb combinations:
“begin – began – begun”, “sing – sang – sung”
– different root vowel change in the 2nd and the 3rd forms;
“find – found – found”, “meet – met – met”
– the same root vowel change in the 2nd and the 3rd forms;
“write – wrote – written”, “blow – blew – blown”
– root vowel change in the 2nd and the old inflexion “-(e)n” in the 3rd form;
“lie – lay – lain”, “speak – spoke – spoken”
– root vowel change in the 2nd and root vowel change combined with the old inflexion “-(e)n” in the 3rd form;
“hear – heard – heard’, “sell – sold – sold”, “keep – kept – kept”, “mean – meant – meant”
– the same root vowel change in the 2nd and the 3rd forms combined with the inflexion “-d (-t)” in the 3rd form;
“bend – bent – bent”, “build – built – built”, “lend – lent – lent”
– changing of the final “-d” into -t” in the 2nd and the 3rd forms;
“catch – caught – caught”, “leave – left – left”, “lose – lost – lost”, “have – had – had”
– the same root vowel change in the 2nd and the 3rd forms combined with some consonantal changes;
“cut – cut – cut”, “hurt – hurt – hurt”, “put – put – put”, “hit – hit – hit”
– the same form for all the three forms of the verb – i.e. homonymy of forms.
“run – ran – run”, “come – came – come”; “beat – beat – beaten”
– partial homonymy of forms – the 1st and the 3rd or the 1st and the 2nd;
N.B. “read – read – read” [ri:d – red – red] – a case of homography (i.e. the same spelling but different pronunciation;
“be – was / were – been”, “go – went – gone”
– entirely different root for the 2nd form – the so-called “suppletion”;
“crow – crew – crowed”, “show – showed – shown”
– mixed formation – regular for one form and irregular for the other.
A number of verbs have both regular and irregular forms. In most cases the choice depends on whether we stick to the rules of British or American English.
E.g. the following verbs are irregular in British and regular in American English:
“burn – burnt (burned) – burnt (burned)”, “dream – dreamt (dreamed) – dreamt (dreamed)”, “lean – leant (leaned) – leant (leaned)”, “learn – learnt (learned) – learnt (learned)”, “smell – smelt (smelled) – smelt (smelled)”, “spell – spelt (spelled) – spelt (spelled)”, “spill – spelt (spelled) – spelt (spelled)”, “spoil – spoilt (spoiled) – spoilt (spoiled)”, “wake – woke (waked) – woken (waked)”.
The following verbs are irregular in American and regular in British English:
“fit – fit (fitted) – fit (fitted)”, “quit – quit (quitted) – quit (quitted)”, “wet – wet (wetted) – wet (wetted)”, “dive – dove (dived) –dived (dived)”.
The verb “get” has different Past Participle forms in British English – “got” and American English – “gotten” (except when in the combination “have got”).
4. Transitive vs. Intransitive
Переходные ↔ Непереходные
Transitive verbs require some kind of object to complete their meaning. They may be followed by: a) a direct object – an object immediately affected by the denoted action, e.g. “He always tells the truth.”; b) a combination of a direct object and an indirect object – an addressee (recipient / beneficiary) of the denoted action, e.g. “He gave me a book.”; c) a prepositional object – an object (a directly affected one or the addressee) collocated with the preceding verb with the help of a preposition (v + prep. + n), “Jane looks after her sister.”
Hence, the transitive verbs may be subdivided into: a) monotransitive, b) ditransitive and c) prepositional transitive verbs.
Intransitive verbs do not require some kind of object for the completion of their meaning, e.g. “The sun rises at the East.”
Only transitive verbs seem to be able to have Passive Voice forms, e.g. Active Voice: “He told me a story.” Passive Voice: “A story was told to me (by him).” – A Direct Passive. / “I was told a story (by him)”. – An Indirect Passive.
However, under some specific conditions, intransitive verbs do occur in passive constructions, e.g. “The bed has not been slept in”. “The house has not been lived in so far.”
5. Notional vs. Structural
Понятийные (Знаменательные) ↔ Структурные
Notional verbs always have a lexical meaning of their own an independent function in the sentence, e.g. “John lives in London. He lived in London during the war. Actually, he has been living since he was born.”
Structural verbs are always closely connected with some other words in the sentence. They are subdivided into auxiliary, modal, aspective (phasal), link (copulative) and structural verbs.
• Auxiliary verbs (“be”, “have”, “do”) are combined with non-finite verb-forms to build up analytical forms. They have lost their lexical meaning and bear a grammatical meaning only.
E.g. “I am trying to help you.” “Do you know the traffic rules?” “The work is done.”
Modal and aspective (phasal) verbs go together with a non-finite form (a verbal) of another verb to form a compound verbal (modal and aspective – respectively) predicate.
• Modal verbs specify the speakers attitude to the action, e.g. “can” and “may” – ability to do smth., permission, request, prohibition, doubt; “must” – necessity, order, prohibition, certainty; etc. Together with an infinitive they form a compound verbal modal predicate.
E.g. “I can read and write.” “He must have been here before.” “You should take care of yourself.”
• Aspective (phasal) verbs specify the phase of the action – its beginning (“begin”, “start”), continuation (“continue”, “go on”, “keep”) or end (“stop”, “cease”, “give up”). When coupled with an infinitive or gerund (depending on the verb used) they make up a compound verbal aspective predicate.
E.g. “She started to sing.” “They kept looking at me.”
• Link (copulative / copula) verbs go together with a predicative (i.e. a noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, numeral, verbal, clause) to form a compound nominal predicate. They are used to denote a state (the so-called verbs of being: “be“, “feel”, “seem”, “appear”, “look”, “taste”, “smell”, “sound”), coming into a state verbs of becoming: “become”, “grow”, “turn”, get”, “make”) and keeping a state (verbs of remaining: “remain”, “keep”, “stay”).
E.g. “It is (feels, seems, looks, etc.) good.” “The man became (grew, turned) cold.”
N.B. There is a group of verbs which while retaining their full lexical meaning can also perform the function of a link verb. Here belong the verbs “sit”, “stand”, “lie”, “leave”, “return”, “live”, “die”, “fall”. When combined with a predicative they form a verbal nominal predicate.
E.g. “They lied motionless.” (= “They lied and were motionless.”)
“He died a hero.” (=“He died and he is a hero.”)
