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 — measuring line — 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. וְיָצָ֨א ע֜וֹד קָ֤ו הַמִּדָּה֙ נֶגְדּ֔וֹ עַ֖ל גִּבְעַ֣ת גָּרֵ֑ב וְנָסַ֖ב גֹּעָֽתָה׃ [And the measuring line shall yet go out straight forward unto the hill Gareb, and shall turn about unto Goah.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.874/) ## 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:782 # text = וְיָצָ֨א ע֜וֹד קָ֤ו הַמִּדָּה֙ נֶגְדּ֔וֹ עַ֖ל גִּבְעַ֣ת גָּרֵ֑ב וְנָסַ֖ב גֹּעָֽתָה׃ # verse = JER.31.39 1-2 וְיָצָ֨א _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_31:39!1|MId=o240310390011|Strong=2050b 2 יָצָ֨א יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.go.out|Ref=JER_31:39!1|MId=o240310390012|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:240310390041;|Type=weqatal 3 ע֜וֹד עוֹד ADV _ _ 2 advmod _ Gloss=again|Ref=JER_31:39!2|MId=o240310390021|Strong=5750 4 קָ֤ו קַו NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.measuring-line|Ref=JER_31:39!4|MId=o240310390041|Strong=6957 5-6 הַמִּדָּה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=JER_31:39!5|MId=o240310390051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 מִּדָּה֙ מִדָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=measurement|Ref=JER_31:39!5|MId=o240310390052|Strong=4060 7-8 נֶגְדּ֔וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 נֶגְדּ נֶגֶד NOUN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=before|Ref=JER_31:39!6|MId=o240310390061|Strong=5048 8 ֔וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 nmod:poss _ Gloss=itself|Ref=JER_31:39!6|MId=o240310390062|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 9 עַ֖ל עַל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_31:39!7|MId=o240310390071|Strong=5921 10 גִּבְעַ֣ת גִּבְעָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=the.hill|Ref=JER_31:39!8|MId=o240310390081|Strong=1389 11 גָּרֵ֑ב גָּרֵב PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Gareb|Ref=JER_31:39!9|MId=o240310390091|Strong=1619a 12-13 וְנָסַ֖ב _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=JER_31:39!10|MId=o240310390101|Strong=2050b 13 נָסַ֖ב סָבַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=NIPHAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=it.will.turn|Ref=JER_31:39!10|MId=o240310390102|Strong=5437|Frame=A1:240310390041;|Type=weqatal 14-15 גֹּעָֽתָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 גֹּעָֽת גֹּעָה PROPN _ _ 13 obl _ Gloss=towards|Ref=JER_31:39!11|MId=o240310390111|Strong=1601 15 ָה ה X _ _ 14 nmod _ Gloss=Goah|Ref=JER_31:39!11|MId=o240310390112|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 16 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 15 punct _ Ref=JER_31:39!11 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָצָא *it will go out* | weqatal · qal | קָו *the measuring-line* | | | | | נָסַב *it will turn* | weqatal · niphal | | קָו *the measuring-line* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
