Transition_to_a_situation [change]
An Entity ends up in a Final_situation.
I have come to appreciate good coffee .
We have come to expect three meals a day .
When the history of our times comes to be written , They Organized Themselves to Death will be the only possible epitaph .
This frame should be compared to the more general Transition_to_a_state, which also includes changes to a Final_category and a Final_quality.
This frame should be compared to Process_start and Activity_start. Unlike Process_start's Process FE and Activity_start's Activity FE, the Final_situation need not be conceived of as an ongoing event. Also, there is no emphasis on the temporal profiling in Transition_to_a_situation other than the before (where the Final_situation is not true) to the after (where the Final_situation is true).
