Embedded how- and that-clauses under perception verbs
The paper discusses different kinds of complements under perception verbs like see and hear in Russian, English and Norwegian. The main idea is to analyze the choice of complementizers as markers of Vendler’s distinction between events and facts (here: how vs. that). Such an approach will hopefully shed light on the unexpected distribution of aspect and tense in Russian perception constructions.
