This paper aims to present a paradigm of the five types of perception verbs in six languages -the Korean, Chinese, Swahili, Burmese, Twi, and Hindi-, and to identify whether there exists a semantic extension in the domain of perception verbs, and if so, which pattern, among the patterns presented in Viberg(1984), Viberg(2001), and Evans & Wilkins(2000), best supports the semantic extension. This paper further examines whether perception verbs are used differently to signify cognitive or other meanings. Based on the perception paradigms of Korean, Chinese, Swahili, Burmese, Twi, and Hindi, this study categorized the paradigms of perception verbs into three different categories. First, languages that the perception verb describing activity is mostly lexicalized as a verb root and the activity verbs follow regular derivation or compounding to form verbs on experience. Second, languages which have perception verbs for activity and experience that are mostly unrelated. Third, languages that the same verb root is used to describe both activity and experience.
