Образуването на вторични имперфективи със суфикс -ава- с поглед към морфонологичните прояви
The Formation of Secondary Imperfectives with the Suffix -avа-: a Morphonological Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The present paper examines the formation of secondary imperfective verbs with the suffix -ava- in the Bulgarian language. The characteristics which distinguish it from other suffixes are traced and outlined. A classification is proposed, and the different morphophonological groups are analyzed. Comparing the morphophonological features that characterize the formation of secondary imperfectives made it possible to clearly demonstrate the systematic nature of the described transformations and the specific role of each alternation in marking a particular group.
