Body_movementPArea identifies any expression describing a region in which the motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. (This FE should be contrasted with Place .)
BringingCArea is used for descriprion of a general area in which the carrying action takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path.
BunglingCThe type of action that the Agent habitually bungles.
Cause_fluidic_motionCThe setting in which the Fluid 's movement takes place along an unspecified Path .
Cause_motionCThe FE Area is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path. Locative setting adjuncts may also be assigned this frame element.
CothemeCArea marks expressions which describe a general area in which the motion of Theme and Cotheme takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Locative setting adjuncts of motion expressions may also be assigned this frame element.
EmanatingPThe Area is used for expressions which describe a general area in which the emanating takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path.
EmittingPThe Area is used for expressions which describe a general area in which emission takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path.
EvadingPThis FE is used for phrases that describe a general Area in which motion occurs when it is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Locative setting adjuncts of motion expressions may also be assigned this frame element.
Fluidic_motionCArea is the setting in which the Fluid 's movement takes place on an unspecified Path .
InstallingPThe Area is the setting into which multiple Component s or a complex Component is installed.
Mass_motionCThe place where the overall motion event takes place, thus including Source, Path, and Goal locations. Letters streamed in all over the country .
Measure_areaCThe region whose surface is being measured.
MotionCArea identifies the setting in which the Theme 's movement takes place without a specified Path .
Motion_directionalCThis FE identifies the general Area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path.
Motion_noiseCThis FE identifies the general Area in which motion takes place, used particularly if the motion is understood as following a complex or non-linear path.
Motion_scenarioCThe Area is the setting in which the Theme 's movement takes place.
Operate_vehicleCThis frame element is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Locative setting adjuncts of motion expressions may also be assigned this frame element.
PassingCThe FE Area is used for expressions which describe a general area in which passing takes place when the passing is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path. Locative setting adjuncts may also be assigned this frame element.
Path_shapeCThis frame element is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Note that this FE should not be used for any locational modifier which would occur just as naturally with a non-motion predicate, like speech.
PlacingPThe Area is the setting into which the Theme is placed.
Ride_vehicleCThe Area is the location where the motion takes place.
Self_motionCArea is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Note that this FE should not be used for cases when the same phrase could be used with the same meaning with a non-motion target, since these should be annotated with the Place FE.
Shoot_projectilesPThis frame element is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path. Locative setting adjuncts may also be assigned this frame element. Kim pushed the lawnmower around the garden .
Shooting_scenarioPThis frame element is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular or not to consist of a single, linear path. Locative setting adjuncts may also be assigned this frame element. Kim pushed the lawnmower around the garden .
StoringPThe Area is the setting into which a mass Theme is placed.
StrictnessPThe Area is the arena in which the Agent is or is not strict.
TravelCThis is the Area in which the traveling takes place. This frame element describes the enclosed area inside which travelling, of unspecified Source , Path or Goal takes place.
TraversingCThis frame element is used for expressions which describe a general area in which motion takes place when the motion is understood to be irregular and not to consist of a single linear path. Note that this FE should not be used for any locational modifier which would occur just as naturally with a non-motion predicate, like speech.
Use_firearmPArea is the setting in which the projectile's movement takes place.
Use_vehicleCThe Area is the location where the motion takes place.
