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 — man, I, these, tokens — and what happens in the verse to wanton charges, tokens, garment, elders, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos 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 34 chapters of Deuteronomy on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְהִנֵּה־ה֡וּא שָׂם֩ עֲלִילֹ֨ת דְּבָרִ֜ים לֵאמֹ֗ר לֹֽא־מָצָ֤אתִי לְבִתְּךָ֙ בְּתוּלִ֔ים וְאֵ֖לֶּה בְּתוּלֵ֣י בִתִּ֑י וּפָֽרְשׂוּ֙ הַשִּׂמְלָ֔ה לִפְנֵ֖י זִקְנֵ֥י הָעִֽיר׃ [and, lo, he hath laid wanton charges, saying: I found not in thy daughter the tokens of virginity; and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity.'

Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss. ```conllu rtl gloss # sent_id = wlc:DEU:594 # text = וְהִנֵּה־ה֡וּא שָׂם֩ עֲלִילֹ֨ת דְּבָרִ֜ים לֵאמֹ֗ר לֹֽא־מָצָ֤אתִי לְבִתְּךָ֙ בְּתוּלִ֔ים וְאֵ֖לֶּה בְּתוּלֵ֣י בִתִּ֑י וּפָֽרְשׂוּ֙ הַשִּׂמְלָ֔ה לִפְנֵ֖י זִקְנֵ֥י הָעִֽיר׃ # verse = DEU.22.17 1-2 וְהִנֵּה־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 4 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_22:17!1|MId=o050220170011|Strong=2050b 2 הִנֵּה־ הִנֵּה INTJ _ _ 4 discourse _ Gloss=there!|Ref=DEU_22:17!1|MId=o050220170012|Strong=2009|Type=demonstrative 3 ה֡וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 4 nsubj _ Gloss=he|Ref=DEU_22:17!2|MId=o050220170021|Strong=1931|Type=personal 4 שָׂם֩ שׂים VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=he.has.made|Ref=DEU_22:17!3|MId=o050220170031|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:050220170021;A1:050220170041;|Type=qatal 5 עֲלִילֹ֨ת עֲלִילָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 4 obj _ Gloss=deeds|Ref=DEU_22:17!4|MId=o050220170041|Strong=5949 6 דְּבָרִ֜ים דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.words|Ref=DEU_22:17!5|MId=o050220170051|Strong=1697 7-8 לֵאמֹ֗ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 10 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=DEU_22:17!6|MId=o050220170061|Strong=3807a 8 אמֹ֗ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 7 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=DEU_22:17!6|MId=o050220170062|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:050220160103;A1:050220170081;|Type=infinitive_construct 9 לֹֽא־ לֹא ADV _ _ 10 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=DEU_22:17!7|MId=o050220170071|Strong=3808|Type=negative|SpaceAfter=No 10 מָצָ֤אתִי מָצָא VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=1 4 advcl _ Gloss=I.found|Ref=DEU_22:17!8|MId=o050220170081|Strong=4672|Frame=A0:050220160103;A1:050220170101;|Type=qatal 11-13 לְבִתְּךָ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_22:17!9|MId=o050220170091|Strong=3807a 12 בִתּ בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=daughter|Ref=DEU_22:17!9|MId=o050220170092|Strong=1323 13 ְךָ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 12 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=DEU_22:17!9|MId=o050220170093|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 14 בְּתוּלִ֔ים בְּתוּלִים NOUN _ Number=Plur 10 obj _ Gloss=virginiti(es)|Ref=DEU_22:17!10|MId=o050220170101|Strong=1331 15-16 וְאֵ֖לֶּה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_22:17!11|MId=o050220170111|Strong=2050b 16 אֵ֖לֶּה אֵלֶּה PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|PronType=Dem 17 nsubj _ Gloss=these|Ref=DEU_22:17!11|MId=o050220170112|Strong=0428|Type=demonstrative 17 בְּתוּלֵ֣י בְּתוּלִים NOUN _ Number=Plur 4 conj _ Gloss=[are].the.virginiti(es)|Ref=DEU_22:17!12|MId=o050220170121|Strong=1331 18-19 בִתִּ֑י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 בִתּ בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 17 compound:smixut _ Gloss=my.daughter|Ref=DEU_22:17!13|MId=o050220170131|Strong=1323 19 ִ֑י הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Sing|Person=1|PronType=Prs 18 nmod:poss _ Gloss=my|Ref=DEU_22:17!13|MId=o050220170132|Strong=2967a|Type=pronominal 20-21 וּפָֽרְשׂוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 20 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_22:17!14|MId=o050220170141|Strong=2050b 21 פָֽרְשׂוּ֙ פָּרַשׂ VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 4 conj _ Gloss=they.will.spread.out|Ref=DEU_22:17!14|MId=o050220170142|Strong=6566|Frame=A0:050220160021;050220150052;A1:050220170152;|Type=weqatal 22-23 הַשִּׂמְלָ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 23 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_22:17!15|MId=o050220170151|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 23 שִּׂמְלָ֔ה שִׂמְלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 21 obj _ Gloss=garment|Ref=DEU_22:17!15|MId=o050220170152|Strong=8071 24-25 לִפְנֵ֖י _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 24 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 25 case _ Gloss=before|Ref=DEU_22:17!16|MId=o050220170161|Strong=3807a 25 פְנֵ֖י פָּנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 21 obl _ Gloss=|Ref=DEU_22:17!16|MId=o050220170162|Strong=6440 26 זִקְנֵ֥י זָקֵן ADJ _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 25 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.elders|Ref=DEU_22:17!17|MId=o050220170171|Strong=2205|Type=adjective 27-28 הָעִֽיר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 28 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=DEU_22:17!18|MId=o050220170181|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 עִֽיר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 26 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.city|Ref=DEU_22:17!18|MId=o050220170182|Strong=5892 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=DEU_22:17!18 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: yes - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | שָׂם *he has made* | qatal · qal | הוּא *he* | עֲלִילֹת *deeds* | | | | אמֹר | infinitive construct · qal | | מָצָאתִי *I found* | | | | **not** מָצָאתִי *I found* | qatal · qal | | בְּתוּלִים *virginiti(es)* | | | | פָֽרְשׂוּ *they will spread out* | weqatal · qal | | שִּׂמְלָה *garment* | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
