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 — you, LORD, name, man, Shoot — and what happens in the verse to man, Shoot, place, temple, 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. וְאָמַרְתָּ֤ אֵלָיו֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֛ר יְהוָ֥ה צְבָא֖וֹת לֵאמֹ֑ר הִנֵּה־אִ֞ישׁ צֶ֤מַח שְׁמוֹ֙ וּמִתַּחְתָּ֣יו יִצְמָ֔ח וּבָנָ֖ה אֶת־הֵיכַ֥ל יְהוָֽהּ׃ [and speak unto him, saying: Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying: Behold, a man whose name is the Shoot, and who shall shoot up out of his place, and build the temple of the LORD;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ZEC.81/) ## 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:80 # text = וְאָמַרְתָּ֤ אֵלָיו֙ לֵאמֹ֔ר כֹּ֥ה אָמַ֛ר יְהוָ֥ה צְבָא֖וֹת לֵאמֹ֑ר הִנֵּה־אִ֞ישׁ צֶ֤מַח שְׁמוֹ֙ וּמִתַּחְתָּ֣יו יִצְמָ֔ח וּבָנָ֖ה אֶת־הֵיכַ֥ל יְהוָֽהּ׃ # verse = ZEC.6.12 1-2 וְאָמַרְתָּ֤ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_6:12!1|MId=o380060120011|Strong=2050b 2 אָמַרְתָּ֤ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=ZEC_6:12!1|MId=o380060120012|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380010070171;|Type=weqatal 3-4 אֵלָיו֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אֵלָי אֶל ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=ZEC_6:12!2|MId=o380060120021|Strong=0413 4 ו֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=him|Ref=ZEC_6:12!2|MId=o380060120022|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 5-6 לֵאמֹ֔ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 8 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=ZEC_6:12!3|MId=o380060120031|Strong=3807a 6 אמֹ֔ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 5 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=ZEC_6:12!3|MId=o380060120032|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380010070171;|Type=infinitive_construct 7 כֹּ֥ה כֹּה ADV _ _ 8 advmod _ Gloss=thus|Ref=ZEC_6:12!4|MId=o380060120041|Strong=3541 8 אָמַ֛ר אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 ccomp _ Gloss=he.says|Ref=ZEC_6:12!5|MId=o380060120051|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380060120061;|Type=qatal 9 יְהוָ֥ה יהוה PROPN _ _ 8 nsubj _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_6:12!6|MId=o380060120061|Strong=3068 10 צְבָא֖וֹת צָבָא NOUN _ Number=Plur 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.hosts|Ref=ZEC_6:12!7|MId=o380060120071|Strong=6635 11-12 לֵאמֹ֑ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 14 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=ZEC_6:12!8|MId=o380060120081|Strong=3807a 12 אמֹ֑ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 11 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=ZEC_6:12!8|MId=o380060120082|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:380060120061;|Type=infinitive_construct 13 הִנֵּה־ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 14 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=ZEC_6:12!9|MId=o380060120091|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative|SpaceAfter=No 14 אִ֞ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 8 ccomp _ Gloss=a.man|Ref=ZEC_6:12!10|MId=o380060120101|Strong=0376 15 צֶ֤מַח צֶמַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 14 acl _ Gloss=[is].Branch|Ref=ZEC_6:12!11|MId=o380060120111|Strong=6780 16-17 שְׁמוֹ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 שְׁמ שֵׁם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 nsubj _ Gloss=name|Ref=ZEC_6:12!12|MId=o380060120121|Strong=8034 17 וֹ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 16 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=ZEC_6:12!12|MId=o380060120122|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 18-21 וּמִתַּחְתָּ֣יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_6:12!13|MId=o380060120131|Strong=2050b 19 מִ מִן ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=ZEC_6:12!13|MId=o380060120132|Strong=4480 20 תַּחְתָּ֣י תַּחַת NOUN _ _ 22 obl _ Gloss=under|Ref=ZEC_6:12!13|MId=o380060120133|Strong=8478 21 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 20 nmod:poss _ Gloss=him|Ref=ZEC_6:12!13|MId=o380060120134|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 22 יִצְמָ֔ח צָמַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 conj _ Gloss=he.will.sprout|Ref=ZEC_6:12!14|MId=o380060120141|Strong=6779|Frame=A0:380060120101;|Type=yiqtol 23-24 וּבָנָ֖ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 23 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=ZEC_6:12!15|MId=o380060120151|Strong=2050b 24 בָנָ֖ה בָּנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 14 conj _ Gloss=he.will.build|Ref=ZEC_6:12!15|MId=o380060120152|Strong=1129|Frame=A0:380060120101;A1:380060120171;|Type=weqatal 25 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 26 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=ZEC_6:12!16|MId=o380060120161|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 26 הֵיכַ֥ל הֵיכָל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 obj _ Gloss=the.temple|Ref=ZEC_6:12!17|MId=o380060120171|Strong=1964 27 יְהוָֽהּ יהוה PROPN _ _ 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Yahweh|Ref=ZEC_6:12!18|MId=o380060120181|Strong=3068|SpaceAfter=No 28 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 27 punct _ Ref=ZEC_6:12!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | אָמַרְתָּ *you will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | | | | | | אָמַר *he says* | qatal · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | יְהוָה *Yahweh* | | | | | יִצְמָח *he will sprout* | yiqtol · qal | אִישׁ *a man* | | | | | בָנָה *he will build* | weqatal · qal | אִישׁ *a man* | הֵיכַל *the temple* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
