[edit]It seems some people distinguish inchoative and inceptive verbs by whether they refer to change in state or change in activity/process, respectively. Is this a common distinction? (Also, I've seen ingressive verbs used to refer to inceptive verbs, does anyone know of an authoritative guide to terminology here?) --Kiwibird (talk) 11:20, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
Latin inchoative verbs
[edit]I'm not sure if "poscere" is an inchoativum. As far as I have learnt Latin inchoativa end in -scere and loose their "sc" in tempore perfecto. But "poscere" doesn't loose it, so it should not be classified an inchoativum. But maybe I'm wrong ... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.184.177.209 (talk) 00:02, 9 May 2012 (UTC)
Hindi?
[edit]If anyone happens to know about the Hindi use of inchoative verbs (as opposed to Dynamic and Active), could they please put something in the article about it? I feel like it might be helpful to have a non-European language, even if it is still IE —Determinerteeth (talk) 21:59, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
