The page gives the verse in Biblical Aramaic as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Aramaic — and its pragmatics: who acts — vessels — and what happens in the verse to wine, gods, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 12 chapters of Daniel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. אִשְׁתִּ֖יו חַמְרָ֑א וְ֠שַׁבַּחוּ לֵֽאלָהֵ֞י דַּהֲבָ֧א וְכַסְפָּ֛א נְחָשָׁ֥א פַרְזְלָ֖א אָעָ֥א וְאַבְנָֽא׃ [They drank wine, and praised the gods of gold, and of silver, of brass, of iron, of wood, and of stone.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/DAN.147/) ## The tree {#tree} This verse is in Biblical Aramaic, as the book has it here; its tree is MACULA's Aramaic tree. Right to left, as it is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc-arc:DAN:116 # text = אִשְׁתִּ֖יו חַמְרָ֑א וְ֠שַׁבַּחוּ לֵֽאלָהֵ֞י דַּהֲבָ֧א וְכַסְפָּ֛א נְחָשָׁ֥א פַרְזְלָ֖א אָעָ֥א וְאַבְנָֽא׃ # verse = DAN.5.4 1 אִשְׁתִּ֖יו שְׁתָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PEAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.drank|Ref=DAN_5:4!1|MId=o270050040011|Strong=8355|Lang=arc|Frame=A0:270050030161;270050030172;270050030181;270050030192;A1:270050040021;|Type=qatal 2-3 חַמְרָ֑א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 חַמְר חֲמַר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obj _ Gloss=the|Ref=DAN_5:4!2|MId=o270050040021|Strong=2562|Lang=arc 3 ָ֑א א DET _ PronType=Art 2 det _ Gloss=wine|Ref=DAN_5:4!2|MId=o270050040022|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 4-5 וְ֠שַׁבַּחוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 וְ֠ וְ CCONJ _ _ 5 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_5:4!3|MId=o270050040031|Strong=2050d|Lang=arc 5 שַׁבַּחוּ שְׁבַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PAEL|Number=Plur|Person=3 1 conj _ Gloss=they.praised|Ref=DAN_5:4!3|MId=o270050040032|Strong=7624|Lang=arc|Frame=A0:270050030161;270050030172;270050030181;270050030192;|Type=qatal 6-7 לֵֽאלָהֵ֞י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 לֵֽ לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=(et).the|Ref=DAN_5:4!4|MId=o270050040041|Strong=3807b|Lang=arc|Type=direct_object_marker 7 אלָהֵ֞י אֱלָהּ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 obl _ Gloss=gods|Ref=DAN_5:4!4|MId=o270050040042|Strong=0426|Lang=arc 8-9 דַּהֲבָ֧א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 דַּהֲב דְּהַב NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!5|MId=o270050040051|Strong=1722|Lang=arc 9 ָ֧א א DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=gold|Ref=DAN_5:4!5|MId=o270050040052|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 10-12 וְכַסְפָּ֛א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_5:4!6|MId=o270050040061|Strong=2050d|Lang=arc 11 כַסְפּ כְּסַף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!6|MId=o270050040062|Strong=3702|Lang=arc 12 ָ֛א א DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=silver|Ref=DAN_5:4!6|MId=o270050040063|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 13-14 נְחָשָׁ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 נְחָשׁ נְחָשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!7|MId=o270050040071|Strong=5174|Lang=arc 14 ָ֥א א DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=bronze|Ref=DAN_5:4!7|MId=o270050040072|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 15-16 פַרְזְלָ֖א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 פַרְזְל פַּרְזֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!8|MId=o270050040081|Strong=6523|Lang=arc 16 ָ֖א א DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=iron|Ref=DAN_5:4!8|MId=o270050040082|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 17-18 אָעָ֥א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 אָע אָע NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!9|MId=o270050040091|Strong=0636|Lang=arc 18 ָ֥א א DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=wood|Ref=DAN_5:4!9|MId=o270050040092|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 19-21 וְאַבְנָֽא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DAN_5:4!10|MId=o270050040101|Strong=2050d|Lang=arc 20 אַבְנ אֶבֶן NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 8 conj _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=DAN_5:4!10|MId=o270050040102|Strong=0069|Lang=arc 21 ָֽא א DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=stone|Ref=DAN_5:4!10|MId=o270050040103|Strong=0001b|Lang=arc|Type=definite_article 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=DAN_5:4!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} No stored speech act for this sentence. | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אִשְׁתִּיו *they drank* | qatal · peal | | חַמְר *the* | | | | שַׁבַּחוּ *they praised* | qatal · pael | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
