Stative verbs Κάποια ρήματα δεν περιγράφουν πράξεις και δε χρησιμοποιούνται με χρόνους διαρκείας, ακόμα και όταν αναφέρονται στη στιγμή που μιλάμε. Τα ρήματα αυτά ονομάζονται stative verbs και ορισμένα από αυτά είναι: • ρήματα αισθήσεων: feel, hear, see, smell, taste • ρήματα αντίληψης: know, notice, realise, remember, think, understand • ρήματα που εκφράζουν αρέσκεια ή δυσαρέσκεια: dislike, hate, like, love, not mind, prefer • ά λλα ρήματα, όπως appear (= φαίνομαι), be, believe, belong, cost, forget, have (= έχω), hope, look (= φαίνομαι), mean, need, own, seem, sound, want This rucksack belongs to me. The food needs more salt. Κάποια από τα παραπάνω ρήματα μπορούν να χρησιμοποιηθούν και με χρόνους διαρκείας. Στην περίπτωση αυτή όμως, η έννοιά τους αλλάζει γιατί περιγράφουν πράξεις και όχι καταστάσεις. Ας συγκρίνουμε τα παρακάτω παραδείγματα: The water feels warm. The mother is feeling the baby’s head. (feel = έχω συγκεκριμένη υφή) (feel = αγγίζω) Do you see the clouds in the sky? I’m seeing Peter and John in half an hour. (see = βλέπω) (see = συναντώ) The kitchen smells of freshly baked bread.
