Hi corpora,

Is there a corpus out there that focuses on verbs that describe the 
motion of an agent?  I'm thinking of verbs like "follow," "wander," 
"chase," and "loiter."

A comprehensive list of such verbs would be a great start. A corpus 
containing examples of their usage in realistic situations would be ideal.

If not, I'll dig into WordNet, FrameNet, VerbNet, and PropBank, but I 
wanted to ask first.

Thanks!

Stefanie
