SUO: Model of Activity and Action in SUO ontology

["Richard Cooper" <rich@valutech.com>]

Looking at present state of linguistics, it seems
that the most basic ontology shared by all languages
is the simple notion of an activity.  Every verb
in English (see EVCA, for example) takes a set of
parameters based on its semantic properties.  Lets use
that verb behavior to convey the notion of activity.
Then let any single sentence using a verb be an
instance of the verb's activity model, lets call
that an action.  

So an activity is an abstraction, but all verb
activities can be characterized (in principle) in
a database.  An action is a specific implementation
of some verbal activity, and has specific connectors
that fill its parameter slots.  

Is there anything in CGs, WordNet, SUO, OpenCyc,
... that corresponds to this very simple concept
of activity and actions on objects?

It seems to me that this might be the abstraction
just below nil in the ontology lattice we've been
discussing.  

Any thoughts on the topic?

Thanks,
