Re: TYPOLOGY: (conlangs and natlangs): "Tense-Prominent" vs "Aspect-Prominent"

  My latest conlang has mood as its dominant category. All events are
first categorized for mood (realis vs irrealis), with the future
classified as irrealis. Evidentiality is almost as extensive, with all
realis events then taking evidentiality marking as well as all future
(irrealis) events (this distinguishes them from other types of
irrealis). There is restricted evidentiality in the future to
inferential, hearsay, and other indirect evidential forms.
 Aspect is marked somewhat unsystematically by a combination of forms in
the (serial) verbal complex which perform other duties, as well as
optionally by adverbs. Tense is not directly marked normally, although
past/present and future are separable since they take different mood
markers (the future is classified as irrealis remember). However, in the
visual evidence category there are two evidentials, one which marks
present tense (ie the action is happening right now and you can directly
observe it), and one that marks past tense.
 So we have:

-Realis
--Non-Visual Evidentiality (past and present not distinguished)
--Visual Evidentiality (past and present distinguished)
-Irrealis
--Non-Visual Evidentiality (future)
--No Evidentiality Marking (other irrealis)

As we can see, all verbs are marked for mood, most are marked for
evidentiality, and only some are marked for tense. Aspect is the least
grammaticalized, often being marked by serialized verbs which also have
other meanings:

/fe Ski:K da Kahk/
CLS:woman sing do stand-realis-vis.evid
She stood singing = She used to sing

Here, along with the verb "do" which generally co-occurs with sing
anyway, we have a posture verb "stand" added. The posture verb adds an
aspect of stativity or habituality to the action, although this is not
its only possible function (it still retains its meaning "stand", and
could just be interpreted as a postural specification).
