Resumen

Este artículo analiza la complementación de los verbos aspectuales en inglés antiguo a partir de nominalizaciones. Se distinguen tres tipos de derivados nominales: nominales deverbales que implican una predicación verbal pero que no toman complementos propios; nominalizaciones directas (con un Actor o un Padecedor flexionados en genitivo); y nominalizaciones oblicuas. La conclusión principal del artículo es que, a las fuentes del gerundio en inglés identificadas por Lass (1992), se pueden añadir otras más, incluyendo los sufijos (como -ung, -ness y -t) y la derivación sin afijos basada en verbos fuertes y débiles. Este estudio también llega a la conclusión de que el inglés antiguo ya ofrece evidencia de la adquisición de propiedades verbales a partir de las nominalizaciones deverbales, tales como las nominalizaciones que toman objetos directos y distinciones de voz.
