<def-root>This frame contains verbs that describe emotional experiences and participate in the locative alternation, as in the following examples:
<ex></ex>
<ex> <fex name="Expe">I</fex> was <t>boiling</t> <fex name="Emo">with anger</fex>.</ex>
<ex><fex name="Emo">Anger</fex> was <t>boiling</t> <fex name="sea">inside me</fex>.</ex>
While these words might seem to be like support verbs for emotion nouns such as anger, the same verbs can be used in the absence of such nouns, as in:
<ex></ex>
<ex><fex name="Cause">His remarks</fex> <m>made</m> <fex name="Expe">me</fex> <t>boil</t> <fex name="sea">inside</fex>.</ex>

<ex>He <t>boiled</t> <fex name="Emotion">with rage</fex>.</ex>
<ex>Pat's behavior made me <t>seethe</t>.</ex></def-root>

<def-root>The words in this frame can occur with an overtly expressed Seat of the Emotion. This frame element occurs as a PP Complement:
