What function did あり perform in classical Japanese 形容詞? Thanks, this helps some. It does not make the 連用形 case so clear though. Why would the past tense be 熱かりたり rather than 熱くたり? (Are both forms valid in all contexts? I think I've only seen the former. But even so, why would there be a need for two?) --- Also, this suggests that ある is semantically vacuous and is only there for conjugations. I think this makes sense to me, since having a copula there would not really mesh with what I know about 形容詞 at least. |

What function did あり perform in classical Japanese 形容詞? I've modified it to say 「熱き」の連用形 since that certainly makes more sense than just having nothing there. |

What function did あり perform in classical Japanese 形容詞? @TsuyoshiIto Yes, you're right, but I wasn't sure if I should mark 熱く as 「熱き」の連用形 or not, because it seems like 熱かり is the 連用形 for most (all?) purposes. I'm not sure how I should note this in my deconstructions. |

What suffix do you add to a verb to make it perfective or imperfective? @EricDong た is simply past tense. Japanese does not have the perfect aspect (which is what I was trying to say in this answer). 食べていた is fine. |
