The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — wine, money — and what happens in the verse to feast, life, things, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of the Targum and 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 Ecclesiastes on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. לִשְׂחוֹק֙ עֹשִׂ֣ים לֶ֔חֶם וְיַ֖יִן יְשַׂמַּ֣ח חַיִּ֑ים וְהַכֶּ֖סֶף יַעֲנֶ֥ה אֶת־הַכֹּֽל׃ [A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh glad the life; and money answereth all things.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/ECC.206/) ## The tree {#tree} Right to left, as the Hebrew 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:ECC:196 # text = לִשְׂחוֹק֙ עֹשִׂ֣ים לֶ֔חֶם וְיַ֖יִן יְשַׂמַּ֣ח חַיִּ֑ים וְהַכֶּ֖סֶף יַעֲנֶ֥ה אֶת־הַכֹּֽל׃ # verse = ECC.10.19 1-2 לִשְׂחוֹק֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 2 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=ECC_10:19!1|MId=o210100190011|Strong=3807a 2 שְׂחוֹק֙ שְׂחֹוק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=laughter|Ref=ECC_10:19!1|MId=o210100190012|Strong=7814 3 עֹשִׂ֣ים עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=[people.are].making|Ref=ECC_10:19!2|MId=o210100190021|Strong=6213|Frame=A1:210100190031;|Type=participle_active 4 לֶ֔חֶם לֶחֶם NOUN _ Number=Sing 3 obj _ Gloss=food|Ref=ECC_10:19!3|MId=o210100190031|Strong=3899 5-6 וְיַ֖יִן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 7 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_10:19!4|MId=o210100190041|Strong=2050b 6 יַ֖יִן יַיִן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 7 nsubj _ Gloss=wine|Ref=ECC_10:19!4|MId=o210100190042|Strong=3196 7 יְשַׂמַּ֣ח שָׂמַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=it.makes.glad|Ref=ECC_10:19!5|MId=o210100190051|Strong=8055|Frame=A0:210100190042;A1:210100190061;|Type=yiqtol 8 חַיִּ֑ים חַי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 7 obj _ Gloss=life|Ref=ECC_10:19!6|MId=o210100190061|Strong=2416|Type=adjective 9-11 וְהַכֶּ֖סֶף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ECC_10:19!7|MId=o210100190071|Strong=2050b 10 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ECC_10:19!7|MId=o210100190072|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 כֶּ֖סֶף כֶּסֶף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=money|Ref=ECC_10:19!7|MId=o210100190073|Strong=3701 12 יַעֲנֶ֥ה עָנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 3 conj _ Gloss=it.answers|Ref=ECC_10:19!8|MId=o210100190081|Strong=6030|Frame=A0:210100190073;A1:210100190102;|Type=yiqtol 13 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ECC_10:19!9|MId=o210100190091|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 הַכֹּֽל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=ECC_10:19!10|MId=o210100190101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 כֹּֽל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=everything|Ref=ECC_10:19!10|MId=o210100190102|Strong=3605 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=ECC_10:19!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | עֹשִׂים *\[people are\] making* | participle active · qal | | לֶחֶם *food* | | | | יְשַׂמַּח *it makes glad* | yiqtol · piel | יַיִן *wine* | חַיִּים *life* | | | | יַעֲנֶה *it answers* | yiqtol · qal | כֶּסֶף *money* | כֹּֽל *everything* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
