isPrimitive | true |
naturalLanguageDefinition | If x 'contains' y, then x and y are 'physical object's, and y is located entirely within x. |
primitiveRationale | The notion of being "located within" is not fully defined here, leaving open whether this is understood in terms of boundaries of physical objects or a fixed frame of reference. |
usageNote | This relation is intended to be used where an object x is located inside another object y, but x not is not a part of y (as would be the case, e.g., for an assembly). |
