In the paper the approach to the Slovene verbal aspect in the works of Jože Toporišič is described. Toporišič defined the category of verbal aspect in Slovene as a privative opposition between the perfective and imperfective verbs, the perfective being marked for boundedness of the verbal action. He also introduced the concept "vrsta glagolskega dejanja" (Aktionsart) into Slovene grammar. Both was in accordance with the predominant current approaches in Slavic aspectology.
