In each <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4ry8gYMbHcEdmAhAACs6hRjg" class="cyc_term">ZonkingOut</a>, someone falls asleep fast, as when one is extremely tired. This is the collection of types of action which can be done by any normal adult <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVimKJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Mammal</a> in typical circumstances, as opposed to types of action which can be done by only some mammals. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi3c5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Breathing</a> is an instance, though <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVj17JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Flying_FlappingWings</a> is not, because all mammals breathe but only some fly. type of mammal capability MammalCapabilityType going to sleep GoingToSleep The collection of events in which an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViwMZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Animal</a> goes from the state of being awake to being in a state of sleep. <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rZOAVeiYGEdqAAAACs2IMmw" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> <b>TERM1</b> <b>TERM2</b>)</code> means that <code><b>TERM2</b></code> is <i>broader</i> than <code><b>TERM1</b></code>, in an extremely general sense of &quot;broader&quot;. For example, <code><b>TERM2</b></code> is, in the relevant sense, broader than <code><b>TERM1</b></code> if any of the following hold:<br><br> <code><b>TERM2</b></code> is a collection that subsumes <code><b>TERM1</b></code>; <br> <code><b>TERM2</b></code> is a collection that has <code><b>TERM1</b></code> as an instance; <br> <code><b>TERM2</b></code> is a collection, instances of which have instances of the collection <code><b>TERM1</b></code> as parts; <br> <code><b>TERM2</b></code> has <code><b>TERM1</b></code> as a part; <br><br> This list of reasons for why <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rZOAVeiYGEdqAAAACs2IMmw" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> <b>TERM1</b> <b>TERM2</b>)</code> could hold is not exhaustive, but it should give a good indication of how general the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rZOAVeiYGEdqAAAACs2IMmw" class="cyc_term">broaderTerm</a> relation actually is. BT broaderTerm Your everyday life routine daily routine DailyRoutine A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvjJE4ZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Event_Localized</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvWESd5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntrinsicStateChangeEvent</a> is an event characterized primarily by a change in some intrinsic property of at least one main actor involved in the event. Such intrinsic changes may include changes of a thing's color, temperature, device state, or size. Events where the main change is extrinsic (such as a change in location or ownership) are not instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvWESd5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntrinsicStateChangeEvent</a>. In events which have more than one actor, the event may be an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvWESd5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntrinsicStateChangeEvent</a> for one actor but not for another. For example, in a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjwqZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">FasteningSafetyBelt</a> event, the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViLD5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SafetySeatBelt</a> (the device used) goes from unconnected to connected (to itself), which is an intrinsic change; however, the agent who does the fastening does not change intrinsically, but only in his configuration to the belt, an external object. Another example: in a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViw4JwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">HairCuttingEvent</a>, the hair that is cut undergoes an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvWESd5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntrinsicStateChangeEvent</a> due to its role in that kind of event, but the barber undergoes no intrinsic change due to the hair cutting. <p/> Note that some events, such as an ice cube melting into a small puddle of water, could be represented either as an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvWESd5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">IntrinsicStateChangeEvent</a> or as a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVibApwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">PhysicalTransformationEvent</a>, but not (within a single micro-theory) as both. event that inherently involves a change of state IntrinsicStateChangeEvent change of state topic ChangeOfState-Topic one at A time action type OneAtATimeActionType The collection of types of action which occupy the doer to such an extent that two such actions cannot be done simultaneously by the same doer. AnimalActivity A specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVioQZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Action</a>. Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViNqpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AnimalActivity</a> is a spatially-localized action, each of whose &quot;doers&quot; (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1HmJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">doneBy</a>) is either an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViwMZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Animal</a> or a group of animals (i.e. a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjmoJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Group</a> all of whose members are <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViwMZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Animal</a>s). action performed by animals Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> TERM STRING) means that STRING is the English word or expression (sequence of words) commonly used to refer to TERM. The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString going to sleep GoingToSleep The collection of events in which an <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViwMZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Animal</a> goes from the state of being awake to being in a state of sleep.

Each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1IRJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SingleDoerAction</a> is an action which can have only one &quot;doer&quot; (see the predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1HmJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">doneBy</a>). Such actions may be intentional, but they need not be. Most bodily functions (e.g., the instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViYhJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Heartbeating</a> or <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjPypwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Bleeding_TheAction</a>) belong to specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1IRJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SingleDoerAction</a>, because the only doer of a normal bodily function is the body of a single agent. In order for a type of action (i.e., a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVioQZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Action</a>) to be a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1IRJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SingleDoerAction</a>, it must be inconsistent to assert, for any instance <code><b>ACT</b></code> of that type of action, both <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1HmJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">doneBy</a> <b>ACT</b> <b>X</b>)</code> and <code>(<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwP1HmJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">doneBy</a> <b>ACT</b> <b>Y</b>)</code>, where <code><b>X</b></code> and <code><b>Y</b></code> are different.
