When / whether to use :beneficiary #14

Closed saramosher888 closed 2 years ago

saramosher888 commented 2 years ago

So far after annotating 300+ messages, I have seen relatively few places where the role :beneficiary is necessary. But here is one example where it might be useful.

Example: "France has always been honest with me, and I am at least sure that they won't betray me to England."

Betray-01 has arg0 (betrayer) and arg1 (betrayed), but no other arguments. So there is no place in this frame to put England. I'm proposing that we use :beneficiary in this situation. Agree / disagree?

This is a good question for @uhermjakob as there is probably an AMR convention. Beneficiary seems intuitive to me.

Yes, :beneficiary looks good for this example. In general, the threshold for using existing AMR (non-core) roles such as :instrument or :beneficiary is much lower than introducing new frames to Diplomacy AMR such as trust-01, which is something we want to reserve for a few cases that would have a clear benefit for the overall Diplomacy project.

That makes sense.
