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 — thou, ye, headtires, your — and what happens in the verse, 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 52 chapters of Jeremiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. אֱמֹ֥ר לַמֶּ֛לֶךְ וְלַגְּבִירָ֖ה הַשְׁפִּ֣ילוּ שֵׁ֑בוּ כִּ֤י יָרַד֙ מַרְאֲשׁ֣וֹתֵיכֶ֔ם עֲטֶ֖רֶת תִּֽפְאַרְתְּכֶֽם׃ [Say thou unto the king and to the queen-mother: 'Sit ye down low; for your headtires are come down, even your beautiful crown.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.388/) ## 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:JER:336 # text = אֱמֹ֥ר לַמֶּ֛לֶךְ וְלַגְּבִירָ֖ה הַשְׁפִּ֣ילוּ שֵׁ֑בוּ כִּ֤י יָרַד֙ מַרְאֲשׁ֣וֹתֵיכֶ֔ם עֲטֶ֖רֶת תִּֽפְאַרְתְּכֶֽם׃ # verse = JER.13.18 1 אֱמֹ֥ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=say|Ref=JER_13:18!1|MId=o240130180011|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:240110010051;|Type=imperative 2-4 לַמֶּ֛לֶךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 2 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_13:18!2|MId=o240130180021|Strong=3807a 3 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_13:18!2|MId=o240130180021ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 מֶּ֛לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 1 obl _ Gloss=king|Ref=JER_13:18!2|MId=o240130180022|Strong=4428 5-8 וְלַגְּבִירָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 8 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_13:18!3|MId=o240130180031|Strong=2050b 6 לַ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_13:18!3|MId=o240130180032|Strong=3807a 7 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 8 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_13:18!3|MId=o240130180032ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 8 גְּבִירָ֖ה גְּבִירָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 conj _ Gloss=queen-mother|Ref=JER_13:18!3|MId=o240130180033|Strong=1377 9 הַשְׁפִּ֣ילוּ שָׁפֵל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=2 1 ccomp _ Gloss=make.low|Ref=JER_13:18!4|MId=o240130180041|Strong=8213|Frame=A0:240130180023;240130180034;|Type=imperative 10 שֵׁ֑בוּ יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=2 9 parataxis _ Gloss=sit|Ref=JER_13:18!5|MId=o240130180051|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:240130180023;240130180034;|Type=imperative 11 כִּ֤י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 12 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=JER_13:18!6|MId=o240130180061|Strong=3588 12 יָרַד֙ יָרַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 9 advcl _ Gloss=it.has.come.down|Ref=JER_13:18!7|MId=o240130180071|Strong=3381|Frame=A0:240130180091;|Type=qatal 13-14 מַרְאֲשׁ֣וֹתֵיכֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 מַרְאֲשׁ֣וֹתֵי מְרַאֲשָׁוֹת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 obl _ Gloss=of.your.head|Ref=JER_13:18!8|MId=o240130180081|Strong=4763 14 כֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 13 nmod:poss _ Gloss=the.place|Ref=JER_13:18!8|MId=o240130180082|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 15 עֲטֶ֖רֶת עֲטֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 12 nsubj _ Gloss=the.crown|Ref=JER_13:18!9|MId=o240130180091|Strong=5850 16-17 תִּֽפְאַרְתְּכֶֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 תִּֽפְאַרְתּ תִּפְאֶרֶת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 15 compound:smixut _ Gloss=your.splendor|Ref=JER_13:18!10|MId=o240130180101|Strong=8597 17 ְכֶֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=JER_13:18!10|MId=o240130180102|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 18 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 17 punct _ Ref=JER_13:18!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: command - act: request - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אֱמֹר *say* | imperative · qal | | | | | | הַשְׁפִּילוּ *make low* | imperative · hiphil | | | | | | שֵׁבוּ *sit* | imperative · qal | | | | | | יָרַד *it has come down* | qatal · qal | עֲטֶרֶת *the crown* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
