Frame Report

Goal is any expression that tells where the Vehicle ends up, or would end up, as a result of the motion.

Most of the planes set down on the strip before midnight.

The Vehicle comes to the ground, usually (but not necessarily) under the control of an operator.

The plane|veh landed on the airstrip.

A Manner expression describes a property of landing which is not directly related to the trajectory of motion. Descriptions of speed, steadiness, grace, means of motion, and other things count as Manner expressions.

The aircraft landed noisily.

This FE identifies the Means by which a Vehicle lands.

The Mode_of_transportation expresses how the motion of the Vehicle is effected, by its body or by a vehicle which holds and conveys the Vehicle.

Path is any description of a trajectory of motion which is neither a Source nor a Goal. In this frame, Path expressions almost always have a via-sense.

The airplane landed through lightning and rain.

This FE identifies the Place where the landing occurs.

Source is any expression which implies a definite starting-point of motion. While Source expressions are possible in this frame, they are relatively infrequent.

The plane landed from the east|src, a completely different part of the city than we were expecting.

This FE identifies the Time when the aircraft lands.

Circumstances describe the state of the world (at a particular time and place) which is specifically independent of the landing event itself and any of its participants.

Cotheme is the second moving object, expressed as a direct object or an oblique.

Our airplane landed with the others in formation.

This frame element selects some gradable attribute and modifies the expected value for it.

The Depictive is a phrase which describes the state of the Vehicle upon arrival.

It landed, on fire and about to explode.

This FE marks the state of affairs reported by the landing event as understood to play a role in the state of affairs of Event_description

How often the Vehicle lands at the Goal.

The New_situation are the state of the Goal when the Vehicle arrives.

The troop carrier|veh landed to a standing ovation.

The time period within which the landing event repeats multiple times.

This FE identifies the purpose for which the Vehicle lands at the Goal.

This FE presents the current frame as an integral part of a larger conceptualization expressed by another frame. The frame expressed by the target typically corresponds to a Means action.
