The preposition "in" may have, in English, several values, as follows:
Value | UNL | Examples | |
---|---|---|---|
English | UNL | ||
complement (necessary argument) | obj | interested in Math | obj(interested, Math) |
time (when?) | tim | work in 1973 | tim(work, 1973) |
physical place (where?) | plc | work in Switzerland | plc(work, Switzerland) |
logical place (in what?) | scn | work in the project | scn(work, project) |
affected place | opl | hit in the face | opl(hit, face) |
manner (how) | man | split in two | man(split, 2) |
attribute (which) | mod | a man in overcoat | mod(man, overcoat.@in) |
final state (= into) | gol | throw in the basket | gol(throw, basket) |
Observations
- @in
Except for the relation "mod", the attribute @in is the default and therefore optional: work in Switzerland = plc(work, Switzerland) = plc(work, Switzerland.@in)
