Description
Events that describe features of objects or other events. This includes certain adjectives and adverbs, words that according to Nida's analysis usually classify as abstracts rather than events. In biblical Hebrew, however, the distinction between events and abstracts does not work very well, as there is much overlap between the two semantic classes
