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 — I, roll, angel, This, measure — and what happens in the verse to measure, eye, land, 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. וָאֹמַ֖ר מַה־הִ֑יא וַיֹּ֗אמֶר זֹ֤את הָֽאֵיפָה֙ הַיּוֹצֵ֔את וַיֹּ֕אמֶר זֹ֥את עֵינָ֖ם בְּכָל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ [And I said: 'What is it?'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:ZEC:63 # text = וָאֹמַ֖ר מַה־הִ֑יא וַיֹּ֗אמֶר זֹ֤את הָֽאֵיפָה֙ הַיּוֹצֵ֔את וַיֹּ֕אמֶר זֹ֥את עֵינָ֖ם בְּכָל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ # verse = ZEC.5.6 1-2 וָאֹמַ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וָ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_5:6!1|MId=o380050060011|Strong=2050b 2 אֹמַ֖ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=I.said|Ref=ZEC_5:6!1|MId=o380050060012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380010070171;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 מַה־ מָה PRON _ PronType=Int 2 ccomp _ Gloss=what?|Ref=ZEC_5:6!2|MId=o380050060021|Strong=4100|Type=interrogative|SpaceAfter=No 4 הִ֑יא הִיא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 3 nsubj _ Gloss=[is].it|Ref=ZEC_5:6!3|MId=o380050060031|Strong=1931a|Type=personal 5-6 וַיֹּ֗אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_5:6!4|MId=o380050060041|Strong=2050b 6 יֹּ֗אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=ZEC_5:6!4|MId=o380050060042|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380050050022;|Type=wayyiqtol 7 זֹ֤את זֹאת PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 9 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ZEC_5:6!5|MId=o380050060051|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 8-9 הָֽאֵיפָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הָֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=[is].the|Ref=ZEC_5:6!6|MId=o380050060061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 אֵיפָה֙ אֵיפָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 6 ccomp _ Gloss=ephah|Ref=ZEC_5:6!6|MId=o380050060062|Strong=0374 10-11 הַיּוֹצֵ֔את _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=[which|Ref=ZEC_5:6!7|MId=o380050060071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 יּוֹצֵ֔את יָצָא VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 9 acl:relcl _ Gloss=is].going.forth|Ref=ZEC_5:6!7|MId=o380050060072|Strong=3318|Frame=A0:380050060062;|Type=participle_active 12-13 וַיֹּ֕אמֶר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 13 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_5:6!8|MId=o380050060081|Strong=2050b 13 יֹּ֕אמֶר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.said|Ref=ZEC_5:6!8|MId=o380050060082|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380050050022;|Type=wayyiqtol 14 זֹ֥את זֹאת PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 15 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=ZEC_5:6!9|MId=o380050060091|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 15-16 עֵינָ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 עֵינ עַיִן NOUN _ Number=Sing 13 ccomp _ Gloss=eye|Ref=ZEC_5:6!10|MId=o380050060101|Strong=5869 16 ָ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 nmod:poss _ Gloss=[is].their|Ref=ZEC_5:6!10|MId=o380050060102|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 17-18 בְּכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=in|Ref=ZEC_5:6!11|MId=o380050060111|Strong=0871a 18 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 obl _ Gloss=all|Ref=ZEC_5:6!11|MId=o380050060112|Strong=3605 19-20 הָאָֽרֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=ZEC_5:6!12|MId=o380050060121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 אָֽרֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 18 compound:smixut _ Gloss=land|Ref=ZEC_5:6!12|MId=o380050060122|Strong=0776 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=ZEC_5:6!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: wh-question - act: ask - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · narrate · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אֹמַר *I said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | | יּוֹצֵאת *is\] going forth* | participle active · qal | אֵיפָה *ephah* | | | | | יֹּאמֶר *he said* | wayyiqtol · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
