But does it ever happen that way. I am not sure what "one event impels another" might mean, but most of the things I come up with just don't apply and the remainder are just causes and effects, i.e., explanatory regularities. Further, the first place of {bapli} is a force (given as a {ka}, i.e. {du'u ce'u}!), not an event. I'm not sure how you would fit the force in with the event -- presumably teh first event (stewam entering a cylinder, say) generates the force which then impels the second event (the wheel goes round or just the shaft moves forward). |
