Dear native speakers of English on this list,
I would like to know whether *remind*, when used with a non-finite complement, should be analysed as a object control verb.
OALD assumes (implicitly, by paraphrase) that *remind*, when used with an infinitive, is an object control verb (INFLUENCE-type in PS 1994):
(1) remind someone_i [PRO_i to do something]
I am keen to know whether *remind*+infinitive could be used as a non-control-verb.
Thanks
T.
