Notes: {'Caller': 1, 'LanguageCode': 'en', 'LastEdited': '', 'LastEditedBy': '', 'References': [], 'Content': 'The meanings in this series ({D:68.79}) may very well be classified under Domain 67 Time, implying either that the period of time before beginning the event is a brief one or that the event itself takes place in a brief period of time. There is, however, a factor of energy involved in these terms, and therefore it seems legitimate to consider this additional factor as justifying the classification of these meanings as aspectual.'}
