There is plenty of difference. Sarvam Duj is a ship. Duj Sarvam is a variety.
True.
But even if I say {Duj Sarvam vIlegh}, then again, isn't it a vessel that I see ?
This is where I can't *feel* the difference.
No matter what I say, won't the listener understand that "I see a ship" ?
Looking at a "type" is a very abstract thing to do. You're recognizing a pattern, not just seeing a ship. You're being confused by the word *Sar,* not by the noun-noun construction. Suppose I were looking at a bell. *baS 'In vIlegh*/I see a metal drum (a bell)./ But suppose I were interested in the composition of the metal. I might look closely at it and say *'In baS vIlegh*/I see the drum's metal./ I'm still physically looking at the "drum," but what I'm really looking at is the metal that it's made of. A *baS 'In* is a kind of percussion instrument. *'In baS* is the metal that makes it up. One is related to the other, but the phrases mean two different things. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
