Abstract The distinction between Kimian and Davidsonian States is conceived of as a different paradigm as compared to the Individual-Level/Stage-Level dichotomy, and under this theory, copular constructions are considered a uniform class of Kimian predications. These two main generalizations have widely been taken for granted by K/D theorists, both for English and for Romance languages. Based on Romance data (namely, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Italian), this paper provides evidence that, contrary to what has been suggested, copular constructions do split between the Kimian and Davidsonian classes, and that the Kimian/Davidsonian account is essentially equivalent to the Individual-Level/Stage-Level distinction. This contribution has two substantial advantages: first, it shows that the domains of verbal and non-verbal predication are aspectual-symmetric; second, it provides a unified understanding of the multiple aspectual notions under scrutiny.

基米安/戴维森,个人/阶段和非语言预测:罗曼史视角

摘要 与个体水平/阶段水平二分法相比,基米安状态和戴维森状态之间的区别被认为是一种不同的范式,并且在该理论下,连接结构被认为是基米安谓词的统一类别。K/D 理论家广泛认为这两个主要概括是理所当然的,无论是英语还是罗曼语。基于 Romance 数据(即西班牙语、葡萄牙语、法语和意大利语),本文提供的证据表明,与所建议的相反,系词结构确实在 Kimian 和 Davidsonian 类之间分裂,并且 Kimian/Davidsonian 帐户本质上是等效的到个人级别/阶段级别的区别。这种贡献有两个实质性的好处:第一,它表明语言和非语言谓词的域是方面对称的;其次,它提供了对所审查的多方面概念的统一理解。
