Abstract

This paper examines the definition and differentiation of word and word-form in connection with a participle. The author notes that there have been diverse responses but no comprehensive answer has been given to this challenging question. Interestingly, one needs to note that the same is true for general linguistics too!! Based on the points of view Manouk Abeghian, Rafayel Ishkhanian, and, particulary, Gevork Jahoukian, the author concludes that the so-called "main participles" in the verbal system should be analyzed in association with grammatical transformation. Furthermore, the author notes that the particles that form the participles, adn are affixes (derivational morphemes) rather than endings (inflectional affixes), according to which verbal nouns, verbal adjectives, and temporal adverbs consisting of verb stems are formed. Furthermore, the author confirms that the "dependent participles" are not words or word-forms, but simply are separate or analytical verb stems.
