value and a STAR-1.3 inference for a possible respecification of the R value.
For example, if J.-P. were to meet Juliette instead of Simone at the Café de
Flore, the R value of his STAR-1 would be Juliette and the content of 10.1.4
would be realized as I wrote Simone a letter yesterday .TheSTAR-1.3in-
ference is defined as follows:

The first three pattern proplets of the antecedent match the STAR-0 content
10.1.4. The consequent (output pattern) replaces toi by the R value O of the
STAR-0 and assigns the prn value of the STAR-1. The [arg: {X toi}] specifi-
cation in the input verb pattern is intended to match toi as subject or object. In
this way, the inference may result in contents like I wrote Simone a letter as
well as Simone wrote me a letter .
Applying STAR-1.1 and STAR-1.3 to 10.1.4 results in the following content:
10.2.5 STAR-1 CONTENT Moi wrote Simone a letter yesterday.

arg: moi Simone letter
sem: past

The derivation of STAR-1 contents does not interfere with the cycle of natural
language communication, because it applies after the activation of content for
language production by the think mode and prior to the LA-speak derivation
of a corresponding surface.
10.3 Hearer's STAR-2 Perspective on Language Content
When Simone hears the utterance 10.2.1, she does a standard time-linear LA-
hear derivation, resulting in the following set of proplets:
