| Two or more similar entities, which may be concrete or abstract objects or types, become different and end up being two different entities. Depending on figure/ground relations, the entities may be expressed in two distinct frame elements and constituents, Entity_1 and Entity_2, or jointly as a single frame element and constituent, Entities. The differences may be based on appearance, physical properties, or other characteristics of the two entities. However, no such Dimension has to be specified explicitly. The Entities may be like each other to a greater or lesser Degree. Notice that, although becoming different presupposes the notion of a judge who assesses similarity, that judge is not part of the frame of Becoming_different, because it is totally deprofiled. |
| Differentiating_fact [Diff] | A fact about Entity_1 or the Entities that reveals how Entity_1 ends up being the same or different from other entities. (Note the contrast with 'as to'.) | |
| Entities [Ent] | This FE marks constituents that express the set of objects or types that become similar or different. | |
| Entity_1 [Ent_1] | When there is an asymmetry, Entity_1 is the entity characterized by its similarity to Entity_2, whose characteristics are assumed to be known. Entity_1 is often an external argument. | |
| Entity_2 [Ent_2] | When the Entities are expressed separately, Entity_2 is the one whose characteristics are assumed to be known; it serves as a basis for establishing characteristics of Entity_1. | |
Non-Core: | ||
| Cause [] | An inanimate entity or process that causes the Entities to become different. | |
| Circumstances [Cir] | ||
| Degree [] | The extent to which entities end up to be similar to each other, in general or with respect to some Dimension(s) | |
| Depictive [] | This FE is used for any Depictive phrase describing the state of the Entities | |
| Dimension [] | This FE marks constituents which express a property in respect to which the similarity of the entities is assessed. | |
| Manner [] | This FE identifies the Manner in which Dimension is similar or different | |
| Place [] | The Place is the general area in which the entities become different. | |
| Re_encoding [Re_e] | The FE Re_encoding presents the current frame as an integral part of a larger conceptualization expressed by another frame. The frame expressed by the target typically corresponds to a means action within the frame expressed by the Re_encoding. | |
| Time [] | This FE identifies the Time when the entities become different. | |
