Feelings of the actor after events — from ATOMIC-2020 (generated, 2026-10-01)

Gist. What the one who acts usually feels after an event (xReact reactions in ATOMIC-2020): hit, beat, fight → anger; lose, miss, cry, bury → sadness; break, drop, steal, forget → shame; hide, run → fear; receive, thank, marry, hug → gratitude; find, see, meet → surprise.

Conditions and exceptions. The feeling of the actor, not of the one acted upon (oReact — later); the verb without context. Selection: lift of the category share over the baseline ≥ 2 (ATOMIC is positive overall, so joy is not selected this way — it comes from the seed Feelings), ≥ 6 feeling reactions, function verbs excluded.
