Note sul verbo běžati in slavo orientale antico

Abstract

The paper deals with the verb běžati (‘to run away’) and its aspectual behaviours in the Early East Slavic language. The use of the aorist and past participle confirms that in the Early East Slavic documents of the 11th‒14th centuries (taken from the Old Russian subcorpus of the RNC) the verb was used in perfective contexts, but some forms of present participle, simple present and imperfect attested in the documents are discussed in order to show the aspectual indefiniteness of this verb.
