Taxis construction contains two propositions in the sentence. Background taxis usually appears in complex sentence s with circumstantial clause clauses, where taxis semantics plays a sub -dominant role role. A verbal derivative , which inherits tense and aspect semantic components from its original verb form, is able to participate in background<br>taxis constructionconstructions.
