Hello,
http://www.ldoceonline.com/dictionary/appear
appear to do something: The survey appears to contradict motor industry claims.
I would like to ask if "appear/seem" + infinitive is used with future or general reference. Namely, does he above sentence mean "It appears as if the survey will contradict motor industry claims."?
Does it depend on the context?
Thanks.
