Omen

http://premon.fbk.eu/resource/fn17-omen an entity of type: Concept

One phenomenon, the Predictive_phenomenon is an indication of the future or current (but still uncertain) existence of another phenomenon, the Future_phenomenon. There is no Cognizer present on the scene, in distinction to the Expectation frame where a Cognizer takes (the equivalent of) Predictive_phenomenon as evidence for (the equivalent of) Future_phenomenon. Many words in this frame also allow a slightly different understanding, whereby Predictive_phenomenon provides clues as to the good or bad Outcome of an expected Future_phenomenon. Instead of Future_phenomenon an Interested_party that will be involved in the Future_phenomenon may be mentioned. In both construals, the two phenomena are asymmetrical and consequently they have no joint syntactic realization. Such potential augurs well for the 1990s Its appearance was an ill omen. Cold-blooded words do not necessarily betoken a callous nature. I wish I could say my success bodes well for him.
