<strong>Frame</strong> Elements (FEs)<br />
• <strong>Frame</strong> Element (FE): The participants, props<br />
<strong>and</strong> roles of a frame. These can include<br />
agents, inanimate objects, <strong>and</strong> elements of<br />
<strong>the</strong> setting.<br />
• The syntactic dependents (broadly construed)<br />
of a predicating word correspond to <strong>the</strong> frame<br />
elements of <strong>the</strong> frame (or frames) associated<br />
with that word.<br />
• Each FE is defined relative to a single frame.<br />
Any connections between FEs have to be<br />
made explicitly.
