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 — beloved, we — and what happens in the verse to him, beloved, 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 8 chapters of Song of Songs on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. אָ֚נָה הָלַ֣ךְ דּוֹדֵ֔ךְ הַיָּפָ֖ה בַּנָּשִׁ֑ים אָ֚נָה פָּנָ֣ה דוֹדֵ֔ךְ וּנְבַקְשֶׁ֖נּוּ עִמָּֽךְ׃ ['Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/SNG.86/) [Whither hath thy beloved turned him, that we may seek him with thee?'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/SNG.87/) ## 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:SNG:77 # text = אָ֚נָה הָלַ֣ךְ דּוֹדֵ֔ךְ הַיָּפָ֖ה בַּנָּשִׁ֑ים אָ֚נָה פָּנָ֣ה דוֹדֵ֔ךְ וּנְבַקְשֶׁ֖נּוּ עִמָּֽךְ׃ # verse = SNG.6.1 1 אָ֚נָה אָן PRON _ PronType=Prs 2 advmod _ Gloss=where?|Ref=SNG_6:1!1|MId=o220060010011|Strong=0575 2 הָלַ֣ךְ הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=has.he.gone|Ref=SNG_6:1!2|MId=o220060010021|Strong=1980|Frame=A0:220060010031;|Type=qatal 3-4 דּוֹדֵ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 דּוֹד דּוֹד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=lover|Ref=SNG_6:1!3|MId=o220060010031|Strong=1730 4 ֵ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 3 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=SNG_6:1!3|MId=o220060010032|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 5-6 הַיָּפָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=O|Ref=SNG_6:1!4|MId=o220060010041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 יָּפָ֖ה יָפֶה ADJ _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=beautiful.[one]|Ref=SNG_6:1!4|MId=o220060010042|Strong=3303|Type=adjective 7-9 בַּנָּשִׁ֑ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=SNG_6:1!5|MId=o220060010051|Strong=0871a 8 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=SNG_6:1!5|MId=o220060010051ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 נָּשִׁ֑ים אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 6 nmod _ Gloss=women|Ref=SNG_6:1!5|MId=o220060010052|Strong=0802 10 אָ֚נָה אָן PRON _ PronType=Prs 11 advmod _ Gloss=where?|Ref=SNG_6:1!6|MId=o220060010061|Strong=0575 11 פָּנָ֣ה פָּנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=has.he.turned|Ref=SNG_6:1!7|MId=o220060010071|Strong=6437|Frame=A0:220060010081;|Type=qatal 12-13 דוֹדֵ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 דוֹד דּוֹד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=lover|Ref=SNG_6:1!8|MId=o220060010081|Strong=1730 13 ֵ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=SNG_6:1!8|MId=o220060010082|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 14-16 וּנְבַקְשֶׁ֖נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 15 cc _ Gloss=so|Ref=SNG_6:1!9|MId=o220060010091|Strong=2050b 15 נְבַקְשׁ בָּקַשׁ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=that|Ref=SNG_6:1!9|MId=o220060010092|Strong=1245|Frame=A0:220050160091;A1:220060010093;|Type=yiqtol 16 ֶ֖נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 obj _ Gloss=we.may.seek.him|Ref=SNG_6:1!9|MId=o220060010093|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 17-18 עִמָּֽךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 עִמּ עִם ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=SNG_6:1!10|MId=o220060010101|Strong=5973 18 ָֽךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 15 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=SNG_6:1!10|MId=o220060010102|Strong=3509c|Type=pronominal 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=SNG_6:1!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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָלַךְ *has he gone* | qatal · qal | דּוֹד *lover* | | | | | פָּנָה *has he turned* | qatal · qal | דוֹד *lover* | | | | | נְבַקְשׁ *that* | yiqtol · piel | | ֶנּוּ *we may seek him* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
