Comment:
In locomotion an entity moves itself. Therefore, the
agent (the entity that causes the move) is the same
as the object (the thing being moved).
Other Common Relationships:
origin:
the initial location of the agent before it moves.
destination:
the final location of the agent after it moves.
path:
the Place which the agent moves
along. Typically, this is an object or surface along which the
agent is moving.
toward:
the location toward which the agent moves. Unlike the
destination, the agent need not reach this
Place, but it may.
away-from:
the location that the agent moves away from. Unlike the
origin, the agent need not start at this
Place, but it may.
Examples:
The horse galloped from the pasture into the barn.
agent: the horse
origin: the pasture
destination: inside the barn
Comment:
Here "gallop" is translated to "locomotion". One might use
intensity and manner to better capture
the meaning of "gallop".
