Cessative aspect

The cessative aspect or terminative aspect is a grammatical aspect referring to the end of an action or a state.^[1] It is the opposite of the inchoative aspect and conveys the idea "to finish doing something".

In Yaqui, the cessative is formed with the suffix -yaáte. For example, ču'ú 'íntok čái-yaáte-k, "the dog stopped barking".^[2]

In Timbisha, the cessative is formed with the suffix -mmahwan. For example, satü püe nangkawimmahwa, "he just finished talking".^[3]
