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 — highway, unclean, way, wayfaring men — and what happens in the verse to way, 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 66 chapters of Isaiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְהָיָה־שָׁ֞ם מַסְל֣וּל וָדֶ֗רֶךְ וְדֶ֤רֶךְ הַקֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ יִקָּ֣רֵא לָ֔הּ לֹֽא־יַעַבְרֶ֥נּוּ טָמֵ֖א וְהוּא־לָ֑מוֹ הֹלֵ֥ךְ דֶּ֛רֶךְ וֶאֱוִילִ֖ים לֹ֥א יִתְעֽוּ׃ [And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those; the wayfaring men, yea fools, shall not err therein.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.732/) ## 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:ISA:673 # text = וְהָיָה־שָׁ֞ם מַסְל֣וּל וָדֶ֗רֶךְ וְדֶ֤רֶךְ הַקֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ יִקָּ֣רֵא לָ֔הּ לֹֽא־יַעַבְרֶ֥נּוּ טָמֵ֖א וְהוּא־לָ֑מוֹ הֹלֵ֥ךְ דֶּ֛רֶךְ וֶאֱוִילִ֖ים לֹ֥א יִתְעֽוּ׃ # verse = ISA.35.8 1-2 וְהָיָה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_35:8!1|MId=o230350080011|Strong=2050b 2 הָיָה־ הָיָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=ISA_35:8!1|MId=o230350080012|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:230350080031;|Type=weqatal 3 שָׁ֞ם שָׁם ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=there|Ref=ISA_35:8!2|MId=o230350080021|Strong=8033 4 מַסְל֣וּל מַסְלוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=a.highway|Ref=ISA_35:8!3|MId=o230350080031|Strong=4547 5-6 וָדֶ֗רֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_35:8!4|MId=o230350080041|Strong=2050b 6 דֶ֗רֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=a.way|Ref=ISA_35:8!4|MId=o230350080042|Strong=1870 7-8 וְדֶ֤רֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 11 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_35:8!5|MId=o230350080051|Strong=2050b 8 דֶ֤רֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 11 nsubj _ Gloss=the.way|Ref=ISA_35:8!5|MId=o230350080052|Strong=1870 9-10 הַקֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=ISA_35:8!6|MId=o230350080061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 קֹּ֙דֶשׁ֙ קֹדֶשׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=holiness|Ref=ISA_35:8!6|MId=o230350080062|Strong=6944 11 יִקָּ֣רֵא קָרָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.will.be.called|Ref=ISA_35:8!7|MId=o230350080071|Strong=7121|Frame=A1:230350080052;|Type=yiqtol 12-13 לָ֔הּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 ל לְ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ISA_35:8!8|MId=o230350080081|Strong=3807a 13 ָ֔הּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 11 obl _ Gloss=it|Ref=ISA_35:8!8|MId=o230350080082|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 14 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 15 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ISA_35:8!9|MId=o230350080091|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 15-16 יַעַבְרֶ֥נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 יַעַבְר עָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 11 ccomp _ Gloss=he|Ref=ISA_35:8!10|MId=o230350080101|Strong=5674|Frame=A0:230350080111;|Type=yiqtol 16 ֶ֥נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 advmod _ Gloss=will.pass.along.it|Ref=ISA_35:8!10|MId=o230350080102|Strong=5105b|Type=pronominal 17 טָמֵ֖א טָמֵא ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 nsubj _ Gloss=[the].unclean|Ref=ISA_35:8!11|MId=o230350080111|Strong=2931|Type=adjective 18-19 וְהוּא־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_35:8!12|MId=o230350080121|Strong=2050b 19 הוּא־ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nsubj _ Gloss=it|Ref=ISA_35:8!12|MId=o230350080122|Strong=1931|Type=personal 20-21 לָ֑מוֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 לָ֑ לְ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=[will|Ref=ISA_35:8!13|MId=o230350080131|Strong=3807z 21 מוֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 obl _ Gloss=belong].to.them|Ref=ISA_35:8!13|MId=o230350080132|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 22 הֹלֵ֥ךְ הָלַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 15 conj _ Gloss=[one.who].walks|Ref=ISA_35:8!14|MId=o230350080141|Strong=1980|Type=participle_active 23 דֶּ֛רֶךְ דֶּרֶךְ NOUN _ Number=Sing 22 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.[the].way|Ref=ISA_35:8!15|MId=o230350080151|Strong=1870 24-25 וֶאֱוִילִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 וֶ וְ CCONJ _ _ 27 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ISA_35:8!16|MId=o230350080161|Strong=2050b 25 אֱוִילִ֖ים אֱוִיל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 27 nsubj _ Gloss=fools|Ref=ISA_35:8!16|MId=o230350080162|Strong=0191|Type=adjective 26 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 27 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ISA_35:8!17|MId=o230350080171|Strong=3808|Type=negative 27 יִתְעֽוּ תָּעָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 15 conj _ Gloss=they.will.wander.about|Ref=ISA_35:8!18|MId=o230350080181|Strong=8582|Frame=A0:230350080162;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=ISA_35:8!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | הָיָה־ *it will be* | weqatal · qal | מַסְלוּל *a highway* | | | | | יִקָּרֵא *it will be called* | yiqtol · niphal | | דֶרֶךְ *the way* | | | | **not** יַעַבְר *he* | yiqtol · qal | טָמֵא *\[the\] unclean* | | | | | **not** יִתְעֽוּ *they will wander about* | yiqtol · qal | אֱוִילִים *fools* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
