Abstract
The report examines two propositional categorical types of representations
of event relations with a spatial displacement in their invariant expressions:
self-initiated motion of an entity through space, and caused motion of an entity through space. Functional, syntactic, semantic differences, as well as some similarities in their propositional expression based on the example of modern French are described.

Keywords:  functional propositional representation, spatial localization, concept, category, invariant, self-initiated motion, caused motion
