HCE Candidates KNOW .1 Primitive Syntax
5.11.2 HCE Candidates
No is the only plausible candidate for KNOW. However, HCE no has a complicated pattern of polysemy similar to SE know. 5.11.2.1 NON-PRIMITIVE POLYSEMY The primitive sense of SE know which is the subject of this section is different from the SE know of acquaintance. So the sentence Mary knows John contains the non-primitive SE know, whereas the sentence Mary knows John is a twit does contain the primitive KNOW. Likewise, there is non-primitive polysemy of no in HCE. Tentatively, I propose there are at least two senses of no NP: There is a no of acquaintance: ER:748 I only know James, James Napaepae. I don’t know... ER:755 Well, I know some, but I don’t know most all. Get some Haole from Mainland. And some Japanese from over there. Some Hawaiian teacher. Get Hawaiian kind teacher there. I know some Hawaiian teacher, when us school, they strict, though. They take bamboo, they whack ’em on top here. If the guy, he stay like this, then whack you with the bamboo. ER:794 They move out, but some cowboy was still yet. Some I know, like John Kane. I know John Kane was cowboy for them guys. Gee, I forget the other guy’s name. I know his brother, too, but the name, I don’t know the brother, I forget. ER:847 Yeah, Cockett, Nina, the sister, that’s Charlie’s wife. I think they came holoholo over here, then Vredenburg ask him if he like go work for him. Then that’s how the two guys wen go work, because they know them from Hawaii. Yeah, I think so, the boy wen come over here for holoholo Lloyd’s house, then they work. Roughly, I would suggest an explication along the following lines: 82 107 X noz Y a. X knows something about Y b. X can say this about someonesomething: c. this personthing is Y There is also a no of familiarity: ER:786 So I look what’s the difference. Then he tell you what the difference. You look, but you tell him, “Shee, I don’t know the difference. To me, look like the same.” “No, this one narrow, this one heavy build, bull, short, heavy. This one long, no more.” ER:877 But good though, the boss, that luna, I wen work for him two night. but he look the way I work, just like I know all this kind job, like rope kind job, eh, little more same cowboy kind job, eh, any kind thing, I hook up. I would also propose this following rough explication for the second sense: 108 X noz Y a. X knows something about Y b. X knows what X should know about Y5.11.3 Examples of no
