I'm trying to get my definitions straight. I think
linguists/grammarians use the following terms in
different ways so there may not be the "correct"
definition.

For now, I'm trying to understand if the following
formula and definitions are correct.

Aktionsart = Lexical Aspect (innate 'movement' or lack
of 'movement' within the lexeme itself) + Grammatical
Aspect (innate temporalness of morphopardigmatic form)
+ other contextual intrusions (adverbs, etc.)

What is Verbal Aspect?
