Remembering_information

http://premon.fbk.eu/resource/fn16-remembering_information an entity of type: Concept

A Cognizer retains facts in memory and is able to retrieve them. The Mental_content may be presented in clearly propositional form as a finite clause. It may also take the form of an embedded question or be a concealed question in the form of a simple NP. I was impressed that she 'd actually remembered Radish 's name (= what Radish's name is) Oh, and for those who like to continually whinge about how the French are 'surrender monkeys' - remember Napoleon (= who Napoleon was)? I ca n't remember what DSP stands for. And Bill can still remember the pattern (= what the pattern is). What do you remember about your grandma? Notice that this frame is very general. It can be used to talk about detailed reports of past experience. I don't know if I lost consciousness for a while. But I remember that I was lying in the middle of the road with people trying to assist me. Notice that Mental_content reported within this frame is presented as factive, i.e. as reliable and accurate. Consider the following contrasts: 1a. I remember her as selfish--but I might be wrong. 1b. ??I remember that she was selfish--but I might be wrong. 2a. Bill remembers her as smarter than she is. 2b.*Bill remembers that she is smarter than she is. The (b) sentences, which belong in this frame, are less acceptable than the (a)-sentences as they suggest that the Cognizer takes their memory to be accurate while suggesting at the same time that the memory might be or is inaccurate. In the (a) sentences, which belong to the Remembering_experience frame, there is no contradiction as the remembering is taken to be subjective and not necessarily accurate. The concealed question uses with personal names that occur in this frame are not always easy to distinguish from instances of the Remembering_experience frame where a Salient_entity alone is referred to in 3a and 3b, which belong to the Remembering_experience frame, there is no question of identity: remembering here means thinking of one's memories of the relevant person. 3c is different: the hearer is asked whether they know who the person is; it belongs in this frame. 3a. I remember her fondly 3b. Please take a moment to remember Caesar and his Family. 3c. Do you remember Alexander the Great? He was one of history's most prolific conquerors, and he did it all in his twenties. This frame differs from Remembering_to_do in that this frame is strictly talking about a fact, whereas the Remembering_to_do frame is strictly about tasks which the Cognizer would be expected to do. Remembering_to_do uses normally occur with infinitival complements.
