- The viewpoint theory of lexical encoding allows situations in a sentence to bring to focus particular sub-parts of the event structure i.e. one situation may focus on the beginning endpoint and the sentence will have inchoative aspect and another with the same verb may focus on the end point and it will be perfective etc. (Chung & Huang, 2021)
