  • मैं दो घंटों तक बैठा रहा।
    I two hours until sit-PRF CONT
    I kept sitting for two hours.
    Duration↝EndTime?
  • कल तक काम कर।
    tomorrow until work do-IMP
    Keep doing the work until tomorrow.
    EndTime↝EndTime

These seem to be a temporal use of Extent, but what function fits them?

  • मैं दो घंटों से बैठा रहा।
    I two hours ABL sit-PRF CONT
    I have been sitting for two hours/since two hours ago.
    Duration↝StartTime? Duration↝Duration?
  • कल से काम कर रहा है।
    tomorrow ABL work do CONT be-PRS
    I have been working since yesterday.
    StartTime↝StartTime

From Dr. Schneider, 6/22/20

maybe better to treat the event duration as an inference, and “2 days” as metonymic for a point in time (2 days before/after now)
i think that would be StartTime~Interval and EndTime~Interval then
