[Lingtyp] semantics of object clauses of perception verbs

[Anna Sjöberg]

Horie (2001) contains a section on the semantics of different complementation strategies, including terminology. Direct vs. indirect perception or event vs. proposition  perception (also second-order vs. third-order entities (Lyons 1989)) are mentioned, also percept. vs concept (Bolinger 1971) and immediate perception constructions vs. mental perception constructions (Dik & Hengeveld 1991).


Best,

Anna Sjöberg

where subordination by 'that' conveys indirect perception?

Dear Christian – In Role & Reference Grammar, specifically the work on the Interclausal Relations Hierarchy, the two readings are simply distinguished as ‘direct perception’ vs. ‘indirect perception.’ – Best – Juergen

Please: what are the technical terms for the semantic contrast between 'she saw that the foreigner passed by' and 'she saw how the foreigner passed by'? (I just found it in Cabecar.)

Thanks in advance,

Christian
