"A Protagonist is described as being exposed to a potentially dangerous situation that may end in a Bad_outcome for him- or herself. An Asset which is in danger of loss may stand in for the Bad_outcome. There is no implication that the Protagonist intentionally exposes themselves to the risky situation. The Protagonist may be attempting to achieve some Purpose, which involves being in a dangerous situation. The Severity of risk involved may also be expressed. There was a risk of fire. Original thinkers incur greater risks to their careers than their pedestrian colleagues. NOTE: This Frame is currently in the process of being changed so that some instances of at risk.n will be moved to the Being_at_risk frame, and some will be moved to the Risky_situation frame. In the Being_at_risk frame, risk is almost always supported with at, and its external argument is the Asset. Risky_situation uses of risk include the following: Smoking poses a risk to your health. Smoking is a health risk. The most imminent risk is to our infrastructure. but (possibly ; still under discussion) not: The most imminent RISK is that our infrastructure may not be able to handle the load. In the Risky_situation frame, the external argument is the Situation, and the Bad_outcome in not expressible. The verb risk.v will remain in the Run_risk frame, in the sense of he risked his life for his country. The construction run risk also will remain in the Run_risk frame."@en . . . . . . . . .
