| Summary: | The present article deals with the category of verbal aspect in Resian, a Slovene-based linguistic variety spoken close to the border with Slovenia in Val Resia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia Region, Italy. After giving a brief description of its aspectual derivational mechanism (prefixation, suffixation, and suppletion), I focus on the formation of aspectual units, going far beyond the traditional concept of aspect pair by including triplets and quadruplets. The aim of the article is to illustrate the functions of secondary imperfectives according to the aspect unit they belong to.
