Those are OK, but they do have added baggage. {selra'i} presupposes
that the event is continuous, with no intermittencies or 
interruptions. {teryre'i} would seem to presuppose that there
is something or someone that has to suffer/withstand the event.

I defined {krafamtei} in jbovlaste as "x1 is the duration of x2",
from {x1 temci lo krasi be x2 lo fanmo be x2}. 

I've also thought of {temselku'e} as a possibility, but then the
x2 and x3 of temci get in the way.
