Chapter 2
The development of the perfect within IE verbal systems
An overview
This paper gives an overview of the development of perfect forms in the branches of Indo-European. It
begins with a discussion of the perfect in Proto-Indo-European and problems with its reconstruction. Special attention is paid
to the formal and functional discrepancies between the Common Indo-European perfect and related forms in the Anatolian branch.
The paper then traces the continuation of the Proto-Indo-European perfect form and gives an overview of various new
constructions which take the place of the original form. It concludes with a short discussion of the semantic shifts which
take place in the different Indo-European branches.
