Abstract / Description of output
A semantics for tense, modality, and aspect in
natural language must capture causal and contingent
relations between events and states as
welt as merely temporal ones The paper investigates
a non-reified dynamic logic based, formulation
of the situation calculus is a formalism
for a computational semantics for a. number
of temporal categories in English and suggests
that some recent claims that dynamic logics
are inherently unsuitable for this purpose have
taken too narrow a view of the situation calculi.
