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 — man, possessions, Carmel — and what happens in the verse to Carmel, thousand sheep, sheep, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 31 chapters of 1 Samuel on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְאִ֨ישׁ בְּמָע֜וֹן וּמַעֲשֵׂ֣הוּ בַכַּרְמֶ֗ל וְהָאִישׁ֙ גָּד֣וֹל מְאֹ֔ד וְל֛וֹ צֹ֥אן שְׁלֹֽשֶׁת־אֲלָפִ֖ים וְאֶ֣לֶף עִזִּ֑ים וַיְהִ֛י בִּגְזֹ֥ז אֶת־צֹאנ֖וֹ בַּכַּרְמֶֽל׃ [And there was a man in Maon, whose possessions were in Carmel; and the man was very great, and he had three thousand sheep, and a thousand goats; and he was shearing his sheep in Carmel.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/1SA.723/) ## 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:1SA:651 # text = וְאִ֨ישׁ בְּמָע֜וֹן וּמַעֲשֵׂ֣הוּ בַכַּרְמֶ֗ל וְהָאִישׁ֙ גָּד֣וֹל מְאֹ֔ד וְל֛וֹ צֹ֥אן שְׁלֹֽשֶׁת־אֲלָפִ֖ים וְאֶ֣לֶף עִזִּ֑ים וַיְהִ֛י בִּגְזֹ֥ז אֶת־צֹאנ֖וֹ בַּכַּרְמֶֽל׃ # verse = 1SA.25.2 1-2 וְאִ֨ישׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_25:2!1|MId=o090250020011|Strong=2050b 2 אִ֨ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 nsubj _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=1SA_25:2!1|MId=o090250020012|Strong=0376 3-4 בְּמָע֜וֹן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=[was].in|Ref=1SA_25:2!2|MId=o090250020021|Strong=0871a 4 מָע֜וֹן מָעוֹן PROPN _ _ 0 root _ Gloss=Maon|Ref=1SA_25:2!2|MId=o090250020022|Strong=4584a 5-7 וּמַעֲשֵׂ֣הוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_25:2!3|MId=o090250020031|Strong=2050b 6 מַעֲשׂ מַעֲשֶׂה NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 10 nsubj _ Gloss=business|Ref=1SA_25:2!3|MId=o090250020032|Strong=4639 7 ֵ֣הוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=1SA_25:2!3|MId=o090250020033|Strong=1930a|Type=pronominal 8-10 בַכַּרְמֶ֗ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=[was].in|Ref=1SA_25:2!4|MId=o090250020041|Strong=0871a 9 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_25:2!4|MId=o090250020041ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 כַּרְמֶ֗ל כַּרְמֶל PROPN _ _ 4 conj _ Gloss=Carmel|Ref=1SA_25:2!4|MId=o090250020042|Strong=3760 11-13 וְהָאִישׁ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 14 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_25:2!5|MId=o090250020051|Strong=2050b 12 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=1SA_25:2!5|MId=o090250020052|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 אִישׁ֙ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 nsubj _ Gloss=man|Ref=1SA_25:2!5|MId=o090250020053|Strong=0376 14 גָּד֣וֹל גָּדוֹל ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=[was].great|Ref=1SA_25:2!6|MId=o090250020061|Strong=1419|Type=adjective 15 מְאֹ֔ד מְאֹד ADV _ _ 14 advmod _ Gloss=very|Ref=1SA_25:2!7|MId=o090250020071|Strong=3966 16-18 וְל֛וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and.[belonged]|Ref=1SA_25:2!8|MId=o090250020081|Strong=2050b 17 ל לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=1SA_25:2!8|MId=o090250020082|Strong=3807a 18 ֛וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 conj _ Gloss=him|Ref=1SA_25:2!8|MId=o090250020083|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 19 צֹ֥אן צֹאן NOUN _ Number=Sing 18 nsubj _ Gloss=sheep|Ref=1SA_25:2!9|MId=o090250020091|Strong=6629 20 שְׁלֹֽשֶׁת־ שָׁלֹשׁ NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 nummod _ Gloss=three|Ref=1SA_25:2!10|MId=o090250020101|Strong=7969|Type=cardinal_number|SpaceAfter=No 21 אֲלָפִ֖ים אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Plur 20 flat _ Gloss=thousand(s)|Ref=1SA_25:2!11|MId=o090250020111|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 22-23 וְאֶ֣לֶף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_25:2!12|MId=o090250020121|Strong=2050b 23 אֶ֣לֶף אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Sing 24 nummod _ Gloss=one.thousand|Ref=1SA_25:2!12|MId=o090250020122|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 24 עִזִּ֑ים עֵז NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 19 conj _ Gloss=goats|Ref=1SA_25:2!13|MId=o090250020131|Strong=5795 25-26 וַיְהִ֛י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 26 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=1SA_25:2!14|MId=o090250020141|Strong=2050b 26 יְהִ֛י הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=it.was|Ref=1SA_25:2!14|MId=o090250020142|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:090250020053;|Type=wayyiqtol 27-28 בִּגְזֹ֥ז _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 28 case _ Gloss=when|Ref=1SA_25:2!15|MId=o090250020151|Strong=0871a 28 גְזֹ֥ז גָּזַז VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 26 advcl _ Gloss=sheared|Ref=1SA_25:2!15|MId=o090250020152|Strong=1494|Frame=A0:090250020053;A1:090250020171;|Type=infinitive_construct 29 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 30 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=1SA_25:2!16|MId=o090250020161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 30-31 צֹאנ֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 צֹאנ צֹאן NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 obj _ Gloss=sheep|Ref=1SA_25:2!17|MId=o090250020171|Strong=6629 31 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 30 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=1SA_25:2!17|MId=o090250020172|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 32-34 בַּכַּרְמֶֽל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 34 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=1SA_25:2!18|MId=o090250020181|Strong=0871a 33 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 34 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=1SA_25:2!18|MId=o090250020181ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 34 כַּרְמֶֽל כַּרְמֶל PROPN _ _ 28 obl _ Gloss=Carmel|Ref=1SA_25:2!18|MId=o090250020182|Strong=3760 35 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 34 punct _ Ref=1SA_25:2!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יְהִי *it was* | wayyiqtol · qal | אִישׁ *man* | | | | | גְזֹז *sheared* | infinitive construct · qal | אִישׁ *man* | צֹאנ *sheep* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
