Time_vector [localization]
An Event is identified as occurring at a particular Distance and in a particular Direction from a Landmark_event. The lexical units incorporate the Direction and, in some cases, the Landmark_event.
This frame builds on the Direction frame, further specifying the Domain as Time.
This frame will receive some of the lexical units currently found in Relative_time.
