t represents a real object. My

&gt; &gt;is that most of the time when there is a triadic or higher relation 
&gt; &gt;there is a hidden object - often an activity (or process or event if 
&gt; &gt;you prefer) and sometimes another relation.

&gt; I agree with you.  But Peirce and I would say that there is
&gt; no "new" object here, but merely a recognition that "give" is
&gt; an entity that deserves to have its own variable, such as e.
