The events described by the aorist tense are classified into a number of categories by grammarians. The most common of these include a view of the action as having begun from a certain point.(inceptive aorist).or having ended at a certain point.(cumulative aorist) or existing at a certain point.(punctiliar aorist). The categorization of other cases can be found in Greek reference grammars.
