Peer comment(s):

neutral B D Finch : And what is the English translation?//Your reference also relies upon the Merriam Webster source, but you apparently failed to notice "[Obs.]", meaning **obsolete** hidden away at the end in the MW citation. Also adjective, not noun.

Reference:

"Dans l'interprétation (1'a) le verbe voir peut être paraphrasé par 'examiner' : l'argument
externe est compris comme un Agent (une cause intentionnelle) ; dans l'interprétation
(1'b) voir peut être paraphrasé par 'apercevoir' : l'argument externe est compris comme
un Expérient (le lieu dans lequel s'est enregistrée la perception de l'enfant). L'argument
interne de voir n'est ni déplacé, ni modifié dans ses propriétés internes ; si le rôle
thématique Thème lui est associé, c'est une hypothèse par défaut"

"Experient" in English is an archaic form of experienced, but that is not relevant here.
