Part_inner_outer [part_membership]

โ€น Back Next โ€บ
This frame concerns Parts of objects that are defined relative to the center or edge of the object. The Part is a part of the Whole and the Part_prop describes a property of the Part.

She discarded the [exterior|target] of the walnut.
She preferred a sparse church [interior|target] .

In cases where the Target is an adjective, it has a special relationship with the noun that it modifies such that a phrase which is a syntactic argument of the noun is semantically available to fill the argument structure of the adjective, as in "the outside row of the class"The inner shelf of the bookcase was lying on the floor.
