Frames and Semantic Roles

“Estonian” frames: 4 basic motion frames

agentive (self-)motion non-agentive (self-)motion agentive (causing) motion non-agentive (causing) motion

Framenet frames: many motion frames — e.g. self_motion, cause_motion, using_vechile, mass_motion . . . (we are currently using 17)
