Betydning
An action or event tells us what someone does or what happens. It may be deliberate, like opening a door, or happen without anyone choosing it, like a glass falling. Languages usually use verbs for this, sometimes with endings or helper words, but some do not mark time or person on the verb. Unlike State and existence, this block centers on something happening rather than something simply being a certain way.
