Annotation: The article discusses the concept of aspect in the English language has been described using different categories and terminologies, which can sometimes cause confusion for teachers and students. Given the importance of a clear understanding of this concept in learning a foreign language, we reviewed and compared how aspect is presented in five of the most traditional descriptive English grammar books. We investigated whether aspect is explicitly addressed, how it is defined and categorized, and whether the types of aspect are clearly explained in terms of their meanings. Based on this analysis, we contrasted the classifications and terminologies used in these books with an alternative approach, highlighting both ambiguities and commonalities.
