- Title
Intertextual 'construal' relationships in the dynamics of discourse - 'Aspectuality' in English Clauses vs. 'Aspect' in their Polish Counterparts.
- Authors
Chłopek, Dorota
- Abstract
The following is a brief comparative / contrasting discourse of "situation types" in English clauses and their Polish renditions in "The Hobbit or There and Back Again" by J. R. R. Tolkien. The article highlights certain types of situations in English predicates which are intertextually related to their Polish counterparts expressed through contrastive lexical means. The description seeks to sensitize Polish users of English to the impact of the aspectuality of English clauses on the construal of the situations presented in the dynamics of discourse, which is 'limited' to the grammatical means available within the Polish language.
