Rate_description [gradable]

โ€น Back Next โ€บ
The LUs in this frame describe the level that a Rate, or the variation in some quantity over a period of time, deviates from the norm. The focal Event for which the Rate is relevant may be profiled as metonymically referring to the Rate of the Event. This frame differs from Rate_quantification in that it does not describe the Rate with a specific numerical designation.
