Some Portuguese verbs have two different past participles, such as, e.g., aceitar ‘accept’, with participles aceitado and aceito ; and limpar ‘clean’, with limpado and limpo . The first one in each pair mentioned is thematic, whereas the second one is athematic. While regular thematic participles all bear stress on the theme vowel, these athematic participles all bear the primary stress on the athematic stem. As the morphosyntactic category first person singular present indicative (1spi) is realized by {-o}, it normally coincides the masculine form of this athematic participle, giving rise to a syncretism between 1spi and the participle. The aim of this paper is to track the appearance of this kind of participle and the resulting syncretism in Portuguese and the changes making it possible for new participles to be formed in this way in colloquial Brazilian Portuguese.

The paper starts to explore the interrelations within the system of categories of participle and gerund in Hungarian and Croatian as part of a planned research aiming at the complex contrastive description of parts of speech in the two languages. (This problem has hardly been studied so far in a comparative aspect.) The main tendencies and discrepancies in locating participles and gerunds in the system of parts of speech are presented on the basis of Hungarian and Croatian grammars written in the last few decades. In present-day Hungarian and Croatian descriptive linguistics these problems appear with quite different emphasis.
The present paper discusses some special cases of gerunds in the attribute position. This phenomenon is rather exceptional, because gerunds usually are defined as being adverbs. Word class shift is generally ruled out for Turkic languages. As will be argued, there might be exceptions from this rule. In this context, constructions based on direct speech on the one hand and some going back to postverbials on the other seem especially interesting.
