We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

Hi everyone,

I'm interested in diachronic sources of incompletive aspect markers. If
anyone is working on a language that has incompletive aspect markers and
has an idea about the lexical sources of these markers, or if anyone knows
of relevant literature (which I haven't been able to find very much of),
please let me know.

Best regards,
Anatol
