Fitrisia, Dohra, & Mulyadi (2016). Verb eu ‘see’ in the Acehnese language. Proceedings of English Education International Conference, 1(2), 232-238. PDF (open access)

This study uses NSM to describe the meaning and semantic structure of verbs involving the semantic prime SEE in Acehnese. The Acehnese exponent of the prime is eu. The data were collected by interviewing native speakers. All verbs described appear to be built around combinations of the prime SEE with each of the primes FEEL, THINK, KNOW, and SAY, resulting in four partly overlapping groups of verbs.
