This is what in principle is captured by theory of mind, or foreign consciousness alignment, and the constellation of the viewpoint and deixis. and is run through lexicals and grammar, i.e. through aspect, tense, mood, and modality/ATMM. We show how it works and how the four modules, ATMM, are connected in a hierarchical fashion from aspect to (Guilleaume, Peirce).
