Ulyanov and Philipp Th. Fortunatov. The full grade verbs are transitive, they denote the actions what subject can control. The verbs with zero grade denote the uncontrolled by the subject processes and/ or states, caused by actions, expressed by full grade verbs. Author argues that the meaning of intransitivity, anticausativity is one of meanings occurred by the shift accent on the right, on the end of word form. The actuality of the papers is caused by a great role of the simultaneous reconstruction in several levels of language (accentuation, ablaut, morphosemantics); its novelty consists in the regular apophonic approach to the verbal morphology and meaning os verbal stem.
