Definition
the one central participant role in a monovalent event. Example: in Jack ran or Jack died, Jack plays the S role in the running and dying events, respectively. It is not entirely clear what event best serves as the exemplar monovalent event for defining the S role (Sections 6.3.1, 6.3.3)
