For each of the 5 senses, does Latin have distinct verbs for the intellectual act that follows from the bodily act of sensation?
For example:
Bodily act of sensing | Corresponding act of intellect |
---|---|
to look | to see |
to hear | to listen |
and similarly for the other 3 senses.
This is reminiscent of St. Augustine's De Magistro V.12, which grapples with the question of verbum ("word") vs. nomen ("noun").
