On Psychological Involvement in English Tenses and Aspects

The establishment and selection of temporal notion realized by the English tenses and aspects is a matter of the speaker's psychological involve- ment. Once the speaker's subjective perception finds its way into the constitution of temporal meaning, the scope of the functions of the tenses and aspects is extended and the information carried by these forms is thus enriched. Through the employment of the subjectivity - motivated temporal verb forms, the speaker transmits not merely the temporal information of the situation but as well the emotional elements he wishes to convey, thereby attaining his expressive gratifi- cation.
