Abstract
This paper analyzes the influence of the direct object on verbal aspect and Aktionsart in English and Romanian. The structure of the noun phrase functioning as the direct object may introduce the notion of telicity to atelic verbs consequently altering the type of verb situation. Furthermore, the paper will analyze the influence of semantic features such as telicity and boundedness on aspect and Aktionsart. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
