Welcome to the club Allison! Part of the reason for our debate is that
there is no complete agreement on what exactly aspect is and means! :-)
Therefore there can be no easy answer to your question.
However, I believe that you may find a beginning point for your own search
of the issues within the B-Greek archives. You can find sample definitions
of both aspect and aktionsart at the following WWW address:
