"To me..." introductions #13

Closed cbonial closed 11 years ago

cbonial commented 11 years ago

I have a couple of cases where "to you, ...." and "to me, ..." are used (e.g. "To you , I shall be unique in all the world ... "). I have left these as :prep-to you/me for lack of a better option. Did anyone else come up with something better for these?

To me , you are still nothing more than a little boy who is just like a hundred thousand other little boys .
To you , I am nothing more than a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes .

Could we paraphrase these sentences as "In my opinion ..." or "In your opinion ..." and then use opine-01?

This would be in analogy to using say-01 for vocative constructions as described in http://www.isi.edu/~ulf/amr/lib/popup/vocative.html .

I ultimately decided on perceive-01, which is nice because it has separate roles for the viewer, the perceived thing, and the predication.

Let's use opine-01, since it only has two arguments instead of three.

To you, I am only an engineer.

(o / opine-01
  :arg0 y
  :arg1 (e / engineer
          :domain i
          :mod only))

(consider "To me, he is delaying progress.")
