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 — and what happens in the verse to garden, gardens, lilies, 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. דּוֹדִי֙ יָרַ֣ד לְגַנּ֔וֹ לַעֲרוּג֖וֹת הַבֹּ֑שֶׂם לִרְעוֹת֙ בַּגַּנִּ֔ים וְלִלְקֹ֖ט שֽׁוֹשַׁנִּֽים׃ ['My beloved is gone down into his garden, to the beds of spices, to feed in the gardens, and to gather lilies.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/ketuvim/jps/SNG.88/) ## 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:78 # text = דּוֹדִי֙ יָרַ֣ד לְגַנּ֔וֹ לַעֲרוּג֖וֹת הַבֹּ֑שֶׂם לִרְעוֹת֙ בַּגַּנִּ֔ים וְלִלְקֹ֖ט שֽׁוֹשַׁנִּֽים׃ # verse = SNG.6.2 1-2 דּוֹדִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 דּוֹד דּוֹד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 nsubj _ Gloss=lover|Ref=SNG_6:2!1|MId=o220060020011|Strong=1730 2 ִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 1 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=SNG_6:2!1|MId=o220060020012|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 3 יָרַ֣ד יָרַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.has.gone.down|Ref=SNG_6:2!2|MId=o220060020021|Strong=3381|Frame=A0:220060020011;|Type=qatal 4-6 לְגַנּ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=SNG_6:2!3|MId=o220060020031|Strong=3807a 5 גַנּ גַּן NOUN _ Number=Sing 3 obl _ Gloss=garden|Ref=SNG_6:2!3|MId=o220060020032|Strong=1588 6 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 5 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=SNG_6:2!3|MId=o220060020033|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 7-8 לַעֲרוּג֖וֹת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=SNG_6:2!4|MId=o220060020041|Strong=3807a 8 עֲרוּג֖וֹת עֲרוּגָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 5 nmod _ Gloss=the.beds|Ref=SNG_6:2!4|MId=o220060020042|Strong=6170 9-10 הַבֹּ֑שֶׂם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=SNG_6:2!5|MId=o220060020051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 בֹּ֑שֶׂם בֶּשֶׂם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=spice|Ref=SNG_6:2!5|MId=o220060020052|Strong=1314 11-12 לִרְעוֹת֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=SNG_6:2!6|MId=o220060020061|Strong=3807a 12 רְעוֹת֙ רָעָה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 3 advcl _ Gloss=graze|Ref=SNG_6:2!6|MId=o220060020062|Strong=7462|Frame=A0:220060020011;|Type=infinitive_construct 13-15 בַּגַּנִּ֔ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=SNG_6:2!7|MId=o220060020071|Strong=0871a 14 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=SNG_6:2!7|MId=o220060020071ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 גַּנִּ֔ים גַּן NOUN _ Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=gardens|Ref=SNG_6:2!7|MId=o220060020072|Strong=1588 16-18 וְלִלְקֹ֖ט _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=SNG_6:2!8|MId=o220060020081|Strong=2050b 17 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=SNG_6:2!8|MId=o220060020082|Strong=3807a 18 לְקֹ֖ט לָקַט VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 conj _ Gloss=gather|Ref=SNG_6:2!8|MId=o220060020083|Strong=3950|Frame=A0:220060020011;A1:220060020091;|Type=infinitive_construct 19 שֽׁוֹשַׁנִּֽים שׁוּשַׁן NOUN _ Number=Plur 18 obj _ Gloss=lilies|Ref=SNG_6:2!9|MId=o220060020091|Strong=7799|SpaceAfter=No 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=SNG_6:2!9 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָרַד *he has gone down* | qatal · qal | דּוֹד *lover* | | | | | רְעוֹת *graze* | infinitive construct · qal | דּוֹד *lover* | | | | | לְקֹט *gather* | infinitive construct · qal | דּוֹד *lover* | שֽׁוֹשַׁנִּֽים *lilies* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
