interval1 finishes interval2 if and only if "the beginning of interval2" happen?{s} before "the beginning of interval1" and "the end of interval2" is equal to "the end of interval1".

If interval is an instance of "the recurring period from timeclass1 to timeclass2", then there exist timeclass1 time1,timeclass2 time2 so that time1 starts interval and time2 finishes interval.

If thing is an instance of physical, then "immediately before "the time of existence of thing"" finishes "before "the time of existence of thing"".

If "decomposition of interval into ? interval-types" is equal to class, then there exists class time so that time finishes interval.
