These terms are not guaranteed to refer to the same concept across time but are guaranteed to be consistent within a particular OWL export. Use 'cycAnnot:externalID' for unambiguously referring to a concept across OWL exports or across Cyc inference engines. Varnishing Applying varnish to a piece of wood. lacquering Mx4rvVirCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA lacquers had lacquered varnishing lacquered varnish will have lacquered have lacquered lacquer varnished will lacquer has varnished has lacquered varnishes will varnish have varnished had varnished will have varnished prettyString Pretty String (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/prettyString" 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/2009/04/07/concept/en/prettyString" 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. Varnishing Applying varnish to a piece of wood. lacquering type of cumulative event CumulativeEventType A collection of collections. Each instance of an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/CumulativeEventType" class="cyc_term">CumulativeEventType</a> is an event. Moreover, each instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/CumulativeEventType" class="cyc_term">CumulativeEventType</a> is a collection with the following property of 'cumulativity': if PROCESS-COL is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/CumulativeEventType" class="cyc_term">CumulativeEventType</a>, and PROCESS-1 and PROCESS-2 are instances of PROCESS-COL, then the minimal event containing PROCESS-1 and PROCESS-2 (that is, (<font color="#ff0000">#$EventSumFn</font> PROCESS-1 PROCESS-2)) is also an instance of PROCESS-COL. Varnishing Applying varnish to a piece of wood. lacquering ProcessType type of temporally stuff-like thing that is also a type of durative event A <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/SecondOrderCollection" class="cyc_term">SecondOrderCollection</a>. <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/ProcessType" class="cyc_term">ProcessType</a> is the collection intersection of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/TemporalStuffType" class="cyc_term">TemporalStuffType</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/DurativeEventType" class="cyc_term">DurativeEventType</a>; that is, a thing is an instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/ProcessType" class="cyc_term">ProcessType</a> if and only if it is an instance of both <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/TemporalStuffType" class="cyc_term">TemporalStuffType</a> and <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/DurativeEventType" class="cyc_term">DurativeEventType</a>. Instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/ProcessType" class="cyc_term">ProcessType</a> can be constructed from instances of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/AccomplishmentType" class="cyc_term">AccomplishmentType</a> using <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/ProcessFn" class="cyc_term">ProcessFn</a> (q.v.). ApplyingToSurfaceWithTool A collection of events. In each <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/ApplyingToSurfaceWithTool" class="cyc_term">ApplyingToSurfaceWithTool</a> event, a physical object is attached to a surface by use of a tool. attaching something to a surface with a tool TypicalHumanActivityType-AtLeastOnce typical human activity type at least once The collection of specializations of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/HumanActivity" class="cyc_term">HumanActivity</a> such that persons typically are involved in (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2009/04/07/concept/en/actors" class="cyc_term">actors</a>) at least one instance of the activity type in their lifetime.
