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 — Haman, Esther, man — and what happens in the verse to man, banquet, I, 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 10 chapters of Esther on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּאמֶר֮ הָמָן֒ אַ֣ף לֹא־הֵבִיאָה֩ אֶסְתֵּ֨ר הַמַּלְכָּ֧ה עִם־הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ אֶל־הַמִּשְׁתֶּ֥ה אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֖תָה כִּ֣י אִם־אוֹתִ֑י וְגַם־לְמָחָ֛ר אֲנִ֥י קָֽרוּא־לָ֖הּ עִם־הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [Haman said moreover: 'Yea, Esther the queen did let no man come in with the king unto the banquet that she had prepared but myself; and to-morrow also am I invited by her together with the king.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/EST.92/) ## 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:EST:88 # text = וַיֹּאמֶר֮ הָמָן֒ אַ֣ף לֹא־הֵבִיאָה֩ אֶסְתֵּ֨ר הַמַּלְכָּ֧ה עִם־הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ אֶל־הַמִּשְׁתֶּ֥ה אֲשֶׁר־עָשָׂ֖תָה כִּ֣י אִם־אוֹתִ֑י וְגַם־לְמָחָ֛ר אֲנִ֥י קָֽרוּא־לָ֖הּ עִם־הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ # verse = EST.5.12 1-2 וַיֹּאמֶר֮ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EST_5:12!1|MId=o170050120011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּאמֶר֮ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=EST_5:12!1|MId=o170050120012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:170050120021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 הָמָן֒ הָמָן PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Haman|Ref=EST_5:12!2|MId=o170050120021|Strong=2001 4 אַ֣ף אַף ADV _ _ 6 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=EST_5:12!3|MId=o170050120031|Strong=0637|Type=affirmation 5 לֹא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 6 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EST_5:12!4|MId=o170050120041|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 6 הֵבִיאָה֩ בּוֹא VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 ccomp _ Gloss=she.let.come|Ref=EST_5:12!5|MId=o170050120051|Strong=0935|Frame=A0:170050120061;|Type=qatal 7 אֶסְתֵּ֨ר אֶסְתֵּר PROPN _ _ 6 nsubj _ Gloss=Esther|Ref=EST_5:12!6|MId=o170050120061|Strong=0635 8-9 הַמַּלְכָּ֧ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EST_5:12!7|MId=o170050120071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 מַּלְכָּ֧ה מַלְכָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 7 appos _ Gloss=queen|Ref=EST_5:12!7|MId=o170050120072|Strong=4436 10 עִם־ עִם ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=EST_5:12!8|MId=o170050120081|Strong=5973|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 הַמֶּ֛לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EST_5:12!9|MId=o170050120091|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 מֶּ֛לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=king|Ref=EST_5:12!9|MId=o170050120092|Strong=4428 13 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EST_5:12!10|MId=o170050120101|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 14-15 הַמִּשְׁתֶּ֥ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EST_5:12!11|MId=o170050120111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 מִּשְׁתֶּ֥ה מִשְׁתֶּה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 6 obl _ Gloss=feast|Ref=EST_5:12!11|MId=o170050120112|Strong=4960 16 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 17 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=EST_5:12!12|MId=o170050120121|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 17 עָשָׂ֖תָה עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 15 acl:relcl _ Gloss=she.had.prepared|Ref=EST_5:12!13|MId=o170050120131|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:170050120061;A1:170050120112;|Type=qatal 18 כִּ֣י כִּי SCONJ _ ExtPos=SCONJ 21 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EST_5:12!14|MId=o170050120141|Strong=3588 19 אִם־ אִם SCONJ _ _ 18 fixed _ Gloss=(if)|Ref=EST_5:12!15|MId=o170050120151|Strong=0518|SpaceAfter=No 20-21 אוֹתִ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=|Ref=EST_5:12!16|MId=o170050120161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 21 ִ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 6 parataxis _ Gloss=me|Ref=EST_5:12!16|MId=o170050120162|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 22-23 וְגַם־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EST_5:12!17|MId=o170050120171|Strong=2050b 23 גַם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 27 advmod _ Gloss=also|Ref=EST_5:12!17|MId=o170050120172|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation 24-25 לְמָחָ֛ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=EST_5:12!18|MId=o170050120181|Strong=3807a 25 מָחָ֛ר מָחָר ADV _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 obl _ Gloss=tomorrow|Ref=EST_5:12!18|MId=o170050120182|Strong=4279 26 אֲנִ֥י אֲנִי PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 27 nsubj _ Gloss=I|Ref=EST_5:12!19|MId=o170050120191|Strong=0589|Type=personal 27 קָֽרוּא־ קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 6 conj _ Gloss=[have.been].invited|Ref=EST_5:12!20|MId=o170050120201|Strong=7121|Frame=A1:170050120191;|Type=participle_passive|SpaceAfter=No 28-29 לָ֖הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 28 ל לְ ADP _ _ 29 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=EST_5:12!21|MId=o170050120211|Strong=3807a 29 ָ֖הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 27 obl _ Gloss=her|Ref=EST_5:12!21|MId=o170050120212|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 30 עִם־ עִם ADP _ _ 32 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=EST_5:12!22|MId=o170050120221|Strong=5973|SpaceAfter=No 31-32 הַמֶּֽלֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 31 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 32 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EST_5:12!23|MId=o170050120231|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 32 מֶּֽלֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 27 obl _ Gloss=king|Ref=EST_5:12!23|MId=o170050120232|Strong=4428 33 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 32 punct _ Ref=EST_5:12!23 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
