selma'o

ZAIhU

definition

Quote conversion: the quotation as presented uses pro-sumti and pro-bridi as if the current utterer (not the original utterer) were saying it, but the meaning conveyed is identical to that of the actual quotation by the original utterer and there is a claim that this meaning was expressed elsewhere

notes

Example: Person B quotes Person A in this way with quote "I am going"; without this word, this quotation would mean that Person A is going, but with this conversion, the pro-sumti are redefined and it means that Person B is going (and that Person A effectively said originally "Person B is going" in normal quotation; no claim was ever made about Person A going).
