<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><font face="georgia, serif"><span style="line-height:107%">I send you this message
because I am currently working on a paper on <i>when</i>-clauses and <i>while</i>-clauses.
In particular, I am exploring languages in which <i>when</i>-relations and <i>while</i>-relations
are expressed by means of ‘complementation strategies’ involving ‘perception
predicates’. These are constructions that have not been syntacticized
into a truly complement clause: ‘We saw while a bus came…’ (lit. While a bus
came, we saw it…).</span> <span style="line-height:107%">This type of construction may gradually
become an argument of a ‘perception predicate’ and serve as a complement clause (Schmidtke-Bode 2014: 262).<span></span></span></font></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span style="line-height:107%"><font face="georgia, serif"><br></font></span></p>
