Дипломная работа: Stylistic potential of tense-aspect verbal forms in modern English

«did» is «still, nevertheless, however».

e.g.: They did go .

«did» is «the last, finally , in the end».

The emphatic «DO» is a strong stylistic feature that in its correlation with the verbal predicate creats the emphatic expression.

3. Implicit agent in scientific style is used in the introduction of the facts.

e.g.: It is understood / mentioned / assumed / believed / known…

For students we have completed two tables (13,14) with interesting facts and examples:

– how to use stylistic potential of the Imperetive mood;

– semantic and stylistic peculiarities expressed by the forms of the Subjunctive mood.

In monograph Stylistics of English Language the authors show that the diapason of stylistic devices is very high. We have marked only s some of them but very expressive categories of time, voice and mood. All these means can be used only in context. We consider that the subject «The Theory of Context» must be included in the syllabus for students from the foriegn language faculties. Our tables (13–14) which were completed for students as HOs on the Theoretical Grammar will help them to realise this garammatical material in practical frames.

In his very scientific monograph «Modification of Verbal Forms in Modern English» A.I. Dorodnyh analises a lot of works written by outstanding philologists, native and foreign, and gives his own system of English verb, as follows:

1. Category of time: Past Nonpast

worked works

was working is working

2. Category of temporary retrospectiveness:

Perfect Nonperfect

has worked works

had worked worked

will have worked will work

has been working is working

3. Category of temporary perspectiveness:

Future Nonfuture

will work works

would work worked

will have worked have/has worked

will be working is working

The author’s verbal system is very individual and interesting for those students and teachers who wants to expand their scientific skills in Philological, sphere and continue to research some discussible problems, namely:

l. What is the main factor of the evolution in the verbal system that can be presented in the social community?

2. Is there the future category or future tense?
