Resultative Future Tenses in Macedonian

Abstract

This paper examines new resultative future tenses in Macedonian. Future resultative and Future resultative in the past are formed by the future particle ќе and the auxiliary verb има in present or imperfect tense respectively and the -n/-t participle neuter form. Recently these tenses were considered only as possible elements of the Macedonian verb system. The collected data of examples (over 600 instances) allows us to investigate their semantics and conclude that the forms expand their usage.
