interval2 overlaps interval1 if and only if there exists time interval interval3 so that interval3 is a part of interval1 and interval3 is a part of interval2.

If rel is an instance of spatial relation and rel(obj1,obj2) holds, then "the time of existence of obj2" overlaps "the time of existence of obj1".

If digest is an instance of digesting and digest is an agent of organism, then there exists ingesting ingest so that ingest is an agent of organism and "the time of existence of digest" overlaps "the time of existence of ingest".
