मैं दो घंटों तक बैठा रहा। I two hours until sit-PRF CONT I kept sitting for two hours. Duration↝EndTime?
कल तक काम कर। tomorrow until work do-IMP Keep doing the work until tomorrow. EndTime↝EndTime

These seem to be a temporal use of Extent, but what function fits them?

From Dr. Schneider, 6/22/20

maybe better to treat the event duration as an inference, and “2 days” as metonymic for a point in time (2 days before/after now) i think that would be StartTime\~Interval and EndTime\~Interval then
