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 — Lord GOD, GOD, growth — and what happens in the verse to me, locusts, beginning, latter growth, shooting, 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 9 chapters of Amos on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. כֹּ֤ה הִרְאַ֙נִי֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה וְהִנֵּה֙ יוֹצֵ֣ר גֹּבַ֔י בִּתְחִלַּ֖ת עֲל֣וֹת הַלָּ֑קֶשׁ וְהִ֨נֵּה־לֶ֔קֶשׁ אַחַ֖ר גִּזֵּ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ [Thus the Lord GOD showed me; and, behold, He formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/AMO.110/) ## 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:AMO:100 # text = כֹּ֤ה הִרְאַ֙נִי֙ אֲדֹנָ֣י יְהוִ֔ה וְהִנֵּה֙ יוֹצֵ֣ר גֹּבַ֔י בִּתְחִלַּ֖ת עֲל֣וֹת הַלָּ֑קֶשׁ וְהִ֨נֵּה־לֶ֔קֶשׁ אַחַ֖ר גִּזֵּ֥י הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ # verse = AMO.7.1 1 כֹּ֤ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=AMO_7:1!1|MId=o300070010011|Strong=3541 2-3 הִרְאַ֙נִי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 הִרְא רָאָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he|Ref=AMO_7:1!2|MId=o300070010021|Strong=7200|Frame=A0:300070010022;AA:300070010031;|Type=qatal 3 ַ֙נִי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=showed.me|Ref=AMO_7:1!2|MId=o300070010022|Strong=5204a|Type=pronominal 4-5 אֲדֹנָ֣י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 אֲדֹנ אֲדֹנָי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Lord|Ref=AMO_7:1!3|MId=o300070010031|Strong=0136 5 ָ֣י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[the]|Ref=AMO_7:1!3|MId=o300070010032|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 6 יְהוִ֔ה יְהֹוִה PROPN _ _ 4 appos _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=AMO_7:1!4|MId=o300070010041|Strong=3069 7-8 וְהִנֵּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_7:1!5|MId=o300070010051|Strong=2050b 8 הִנֵּה֙ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 9 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=AMO_7:1!5|MId=o300070010052|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 9 יוֹצֵ֣ר יָצַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=[he.was].forming|Ref=AMO_7:1!6|MId=o300070010061|Strong=3335|Frame=A0:300070010031;A1:300070010071;|Type=participle_active 10 גֹּבַ֔י גֹּבַי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obj _ Gloss=locust[s]|Ref=AMO_7:1!7|MId=o300070010071|Strong=1462a 11-12 בִּתְחִלַּ֖ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בִּ בְּ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=at|Ref=AMO_7:1!8|MId=o300070010081|Strong=0871a 12 תְחִלַּ֖ת תְּחִלָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=the.beginning|Ref=AMO_7:1!8|MId=o300070010082|Strong=8462 13 עֲל֣וֹת עָלָה VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 acl _ Gloss=of.the.coming.up|Ref=AMO_7:1!9|MId=o300070010091|Strong=5927|Frame=A0:300070010102;|Type=infinitive_construct 14-15 הַלָּ֑קֶשׁ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=AMO_7:1!10|MId=o300070010101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 לָּ֑קֶשׁ לֶקֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 nsubj _ Gloss=the.spring-crop|Ref=AMO_7:1!10|MId=o300070010102|Strong=3954 16-17 וְהִ֨נֵּה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=AMO_7:1!11|MId=o300070010111|Strong=2050b 17 הִ֨נֵּה־ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 20 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=AMO_7:1!11|MId=o300070010112|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 18 לֶ֔קֶשׁ לֶקֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 nsubj _ Gloss=a.spring-crop|Ref=AMO_7:1!12|MId=o300070010121|Strong=3954 19 אַחַ֖ר אַחַר ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=after|Ref=AMO_7:1!13|MId=o300070010131|Strong=0310 20 גִּזֵּ֥י גֵּז NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 conj _ Gloss=the.mowings|Ref=AMO_7:1!14|MId=o300070010141|Strong=1488 21-22 הַמֶּֽלֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 22 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=AMO_7:1!15|MId=o300070010151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 22 מֶּֽלֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 20 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=AMO_7:1!15|MId=o300070010152|Strong=4428 23 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 22 punct _ Ref=AMO_7:1!15 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הִרְא *he* | qatal · hiphil | ַנִי *showed me* | | | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | | יוֹצֵר *\[he was\] forming* | participle active · qal | אֲדֹנ *Lord* | גֹּבַי *locust\[s\]* | | | | עֲלוֹת *of the coming up* | infinitive construct · qal | לָּקֶשׁ *the spring-crop* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
