This book examines the interplay between the semantics of noun phrases and verbal predicates, with an emphasis on data drawn from Czech and English and comparisons to German and Finnish. It will be of interest to a wide range of linguists concerned with aspect and how it interacts with lexical semantics, morphology, syntax and quantification.
