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. 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.
