Three Aspects of Emegali

Habarakhe Theophilus:
The three aspects of Emegali can be envisioned as three concentric 
circles.
Synchronic is the smallest circle. It is used for immediacy, both 
spatial and temporal.
Diachronic is the middle circle. It is used for less immediate 
circumstances (perhaps something that requires planning).
Permansive is the largest circle. It is used for sweeping statements, 
predicates, and adjectives.
