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, we — and what happens in the verse to word, name, LORD, 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. הַדָּבָ֛ר אֲשֶׁר־דִּבַּ֥רְתָּ אֵלֵ֖ינוּ בְּשֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה אֵינֶ֥נּוּ שֹׁמְעִ֖ים אֵלֶֽיךָ׃ ['As for the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/JER.1178/) ## 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:1078 # text = הַדָּבָ֛ר אֲשֶׁר־דִּבַּ֥רְתָּ אֵלֵ֖ינוּ בְּשֵׁ֣ם יְהוָ֑ה אֵינֶ֥נּוּ שֹׁמְעִ֖ים אֵלֶֽיךָ׃ # verse = JER.44.16 1-2 הַדָּבָ֛ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 2 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=JER_44:16!1|MId=o240440160011|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 2 דָּבָ֛ר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 dislocated _ Gloss=word|Ref=JER_44:16!1|MId=o240440160012|Strong=1697 3 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 4 mark _ Gloss=which|Ref=JER_44:16!2|MId=o240440160021|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 4 דִּבַּ֥רְתָּ דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 acl:relcl _ Gloss=you.have.spoken|Ref=JER_44:16!3|MId=o240440160031|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:240440150031;A1:240440160012;|Type=qatal 5-6 אֵלֵ֖ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 אֵלֵ֖י אֶל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_44:16!4|MId=o240440160041|Strong=0413 6 נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 obl _ Gloss=us|Ref=JER_44:16!4|MId=o240440160042|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 7-8 בְּשֵׁ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=JER_44:16!5|MId=o240440160051|Strong=0871a 8 שֵׁ֣ם שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 4 obl _ Gloss=the.name|Ref=JER_44:16!5|MId=o240440160052|Strong=8034 9 יְהוָ֑ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=JER_44:16!6|MId=o240440160061|Strong=3068 10-11 אֵינֶ֥נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 אֵינ אַיִן ADV _ _ 12 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=JER_44:16!7|MId=o240440160071|Strong=0369|Type=negative 11 ֶ֥נּוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 nsubj _ Gloss=we|Ref=JER_44:16!7|MId=o240440160072|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 12 שֹׁמְעִ֖ים שָׁמַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 0 root _ Gloss=[are].about.to.listen|Ref=JER_44:16!8|MId=o240440160081|Strong=8085|Frame=A0:240440160072;|Type=participle_active 13-14 אֵלֶֽיךָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 אֵלֶֽי אֶל ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=JER_44:16!9|MId=o240440160091|Strong=0413 14 ךָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=JER_44:16!9|MId=o240440160092|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 15 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 14 punct _ Ref=JER_44:16!9 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | דִּבַּרְתָּ *you have spoken* | qatal · piel | | דָּבָר *word* | | | | **not** שֹׁמְעִים *\[are\] about to listen* | participle active · qal | ֶנּוּ *we* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
