4.13.1 PLC (Place)
Definition: Plc defines the place an event occurs or a
state is true or a thing exists
Place ("plc") relation can be used for both of physical and
logical places. For example in sentence “He is in his office now”,
“office” is a physical place in where “he is”, and in sentence
“He is very famous in this field”, “field” is a logical place in where
“he is famous”. In UNL, for both cases relation "plc" is used.
Example
1
|
English
|
He is very famous in this field
|
|
UNL
|
aoj ( famous.@entry, he )
man (
famous.@entry, very )
plc (
famous.@entry, field )
mod ( filed,
this ) |
4.13.2 SCN (Scene)
Definition: Scn defines a virtual world where an event
occurs or state is true or a thing exists.
The difference with logical place ("plc") is that, the UWs of
logical places have always the meaning of “AERA” or “RANGE” in a
sense, but the UWs of scenes ("scn") are different.
