backward

backward.01 - slow in progress, feeble-minded in some aspect

BACKWARD-J NOTES: Roleset based on instances in BOLT P01, parts 2,3. Framed by Claire. (from backward.01-j).
Note: This roleset was in backward.xml, and we have decided it is ok to have dupicate roleset ID numbering inside a frame file as long as the predicate lemmas are different.

Aliases:

backward (j.)

Roles:

ARG1-PAG: entity that is slow on the uptake
ARG2-PPT: subject that arg1 is slow in, backward on

All args

Arg 2 expressed as "when" phrase

.

backward.02 - directed or facing backward

BACKWARD-J NOTES: (from backward.02-j)
This roleset overlaps with Spatial's backward.16, above. The difference is the presence of the pragmatic ARG3 and ARG4 roles (anchor and axis), which are needed for grounded corpora. Only one should be used for a given project.

Aliases:

backward (j.)

Roles:

ARG1-PPT: backward facing thing
ARG2-PPT: backward from what -- correctly oriented point of comparison

All args

backward.16 - orientation: the intrinsic front of the object points to the back in some framework
