Word: aspectualize Part of Speech: verb 1. To convert into or treat as an aspect. Example: The funny part about all this is that we tend to—excuse the word—aspectualize or abstract a specific behavior, a specific response, assuming that all other responses in that class are random and, therefore, not very important. Example: By embedding signs of the perfect and perfective aspects within signs of the imperfective aspect of change, Zola not only denies chronological differences, he affirms asspectual differences. He tries to aspectualize time. 2. To divide into multiple aspects. Example: I argue, in the next chapter, that semantic networks allow us to aspectualize alethic modalities. Example: In accordance with their divided "specialities" the social sciences divisively aspectualize the "caste problem". 3. To impart a particular aspect to a verb. Example: Thus while there is a tendency towards nativization and regularization of these borrowed verbs, by the creation of perfective forms that thereby assimilate the verb to the predominant native pattern of an imperfective and a matching, prefixed, perfective formation, so that we can generalize that speakers tend to aspectualize formally borrowed verbs, no 100 % true generalization can be made over all speakers nor over all borrowed verbs. Example: Start and serves purely to aspectualize the verb of the second conjunct, much as ginan 'begin' in Old English as noted by. 4. To use as an implementation for aspects. Example: The mixin and aspect code generators in JULIA provide a lightweight, flexible yet efficient means to aspectualize components. Example: Many works are dedicated to aspectualize component models.
