The red quale of your visual experience of the tomato is what your experience represents the color of the tomato as being, and when the representation is veridical, the quale is the actual red color of the tomato.
1. quale是哲学中的感受质。感受质,就是“红色性”,“疼痛性”,“热性”等主观现象。
2. 表语从句中what your experience represents the color of the tomato as being. 其中as being是什么意思?
3. 如果可能的话,希望能修正我的理解并尝试翻译:你视觉经验中番茄红色性,是你对番茄颜色的表征。如果这个表征是真实的,那么红色感受性就是番茄真正的红色。
4. 出自哲学文献:表征可用represent动词,representation,名词用。例如,一头真实的牛是被表征物,一副牛的画是表征。可以说,the cow is represtened by a picture in which there is a cow. The picture can be seen as the representation of the cow.
what your experience represents the color of the tomato as being 是名词性关系分句,what=the thing which。what从句相当于一个名词后接限制性定语从句。
the red quale is the thing which your experience represents the color of the tomato as being, 关系代词在定语从句中作动名词being后的表语,as being which为represent的宾语补足语。
牛津:represent somebody (as something) (formal) to present or describe somebody/something in a particular way, especially when this may not be fair
The king is represented as a villain in the play.

what your experience represents the color of the tomato as being:
表语从句的主要结构是:
represent + 宾语 + as being + what (宾补)
what 充当了being 的表语(被前置)。
what(being 的表语) your experience (主语)represents (动词)the color of the tomato (宾语)as being(宾补)
what 为“融合性关系代词”,引导表语从句的同时,又在从句中充当了的being 的表语。
网友需要熟悉和掌握represent 的以下用法:
represent 的基本意思是“代表”,引申指“象征”、“体现”、“表示”、“描绘”、“声称”等。本句便是引申义。
represent 用作及物动词时,可接名词、代词、that 从句作宾语;也可接双宾语,其间接宾语须由介词to 引出。represent 还可接以as 短语充当补足语的复合宾语。
其他理解,基本没什么问题。
