| Popis | The reduplication process is one of the fundamental morphophonemic means of forming aspectual and actional stems in Old Indo-Aryan. There is a redupli-cative Imperfective stem (present), Perfective stem (aorist) and Stative/Perfect stem. In addition, the stems of two important actional categories, Desiderative and Intensive, are also formed by partial reduplication. Far-reaching corre-spondences with the Old Iranian and the Greek state of affairs indicate that we can project the strategy of reduplication in the formation of aspectual con-trasts back to (late) PIE. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate in detail how different types of vowel-copying distinguish these stems and how ablaut qual-ity of a reduplicative syllable corresponds to different stem-types. A special attention is paid to the reduplicative aorist with iterative meaning limited to the IA family without an Indo-European ancestry. |
