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, thou, these, I — and what happens in the verse to me, 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 14 chapters of Zechariah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלַי֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר הֲל֥וֹא יָדַ֖עְתָּ מָה־אֵ֑לֶּה וָאֹמַ֖ר לֹ֥א אֲדֹנִֽי׃ [And he answered me and said: 'Knowest thou not what these are?' And I said: 'No, my lord.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.56/) ## 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:ZEC:56 # text = וַיֹּ֤אמֶר אֵלַי֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר הֲל֥וֹא יָדַ֖עְתָּ מָה־אֵ֑לֶּה וָאֹמַ֖ר לֹ֥א אֲדֹנִֽי׃ # verse = ZEC.4.13 1-2 וַיֹּ֤אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_4:13!1|MId=o380040130011|Strong=2050b 2 יֹּ֤אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=ZEC_4:13!1|MId=o380040130012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380040050022;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 אֵלַי֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֵל אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_4:13!2|MId=o380040130021|Strong=0413 4 ַי֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=me|Ref=ZEC_4:13!2|MId=o380040130022|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 5-6 לֵאמֹ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 9 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=ZEC_4:13!3|MId=o380040130031|Strong=3807a 6 אמֹ֔ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 5 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=ZEC_4:13!3|MId=o380040130032|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380040050022;|Type=infinitive_construct 7-8 הֲל֥וֹא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 הֲ הֲ PART _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=?|Ref=ZEC_4:13!4|MId=o380040130041|Strong=1886b|Type=interrogative 8 ל֥וֹא לֹא ADV _ _ 9 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=ZEC_4:13!4|MId=o380040130042|Strong=3808|Type=negative 9 יָדַ֖עְתָּ יָדַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 ccomp _ Gloss=do.you.know|Ref=ZEC_4:13!5|MId=o380040130051|Strong=3045|Frame=A0:380010070171;A1:380040130061;|Type=qatal 10 מָה־ מָה PRON _ PronType=Int 9 ccomp _ Gloss=what?|Ref=ZEC_4:13!6|MId=o380040130061|Strong=4100|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 11 אֵ֑לֶּה אֵלֶּה PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 10 nsubj _ Gloss=[are].these|Ref=ZEC_4:13!7|MId=o380040130071|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 12-13 וָאֹמַ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_4:13!8|MId=o380040130081|Strong=2050b 13 אֹמַ֖ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=I.said|Ref=ZEC_4:13!8|MId=o380040130082|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380010070171;|Type=wayyiqtol 14 לֹ֥א לֹא ADV _ _ 13 ccomp _ Gloss=no|Ref=ZEC_4:13!9|MId=o380040130091|Strong=3808|Type=negative 15-16 אֲדֹנִֽי _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 אֲדֹנ אָדוֹן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 parataxis _ Gloss=my.lord|Ref=ZEC_4:13!10|MId=o380040130101|Strong=0113 16 ִֽי הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=ZEC_4:13!10|MId=o380040130102|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 17 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 16 punct _ Ref=ZEC_4:13!10 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | | | | | | **not** יָדַעְתָּ *do you know* | qatal · qal | | מָה־ *what?* | | | | **not** אֹמַר *I said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
