单词	factive
释义	factive /ˈfaktɪv / adjective Linguistics Denoting a verb that assigns the status of an established fact to its object (normally a clausal object), e.g. know, regret, resent. Contrasted with contrafactive, non-factive.This is because knowledge and direct perception predicates are factive, in that they presuppose the truth of their complements....
