Telic

终结

 

A term used in the grammatical analysis of aspect, to refer to an event where the activity has a clear terminal point. Telic verbs include fall, kick, and make. These verbs contrast with atelic verbs, where the event has no such natural end-point, as with play (in such a context as the children are playing).

 

对体作语法分析的术语,指一个事件的活动有一个明显的终止点。终结动词包括fall“落下”,kick“踢”,make“制作”等。终结动词与无终动词对立,后者表示的事件没有这种自然终止点,如play“玩”(用于the children are playing“孩子们正在玩”)。
