Summary/Abstract: An essential problem with which a good number of linguists have confronted themselves over time is that of giving an accurate picture of aspect. The aspect category varies from language to language.Understanding aspect in all its manifestations is important to our work which seeks to provide a comprehensive picture of the various verbal systems we address.Some aspects are systematic in some languages. It is in the comparison of languagesthat we manage to identify the most subtle verbal aspects and to see them in their true light. Our main comparison concerns French and Romanian. We can say that the classification of verbs in simple and compound tenses in French has a similar figuration with Romanian.
