ANADEW? Raising verbs and control verbs

To what degree is raising verbs and control verbs an
IE-phenomenon, that is: what other ways are there to get across
the meanings of control-verbs like those listed in

http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:English_control_verbs

(and there's no similar list for raising verbs... hmm, must make
account at wiktionary)

or raising verbs like

seem
expect
... (add to the list)

Some, like the control-verb version of start, can be replaced by
various TAM-markers but invoking ANADEW, what other ways are
there?
