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, dam — and what happens in the verse to dam, wise, young, 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. שַׁלֵּ֤חַ תְּשַׁלַּח֙ אֶת־הָאֵ֔ם וְאֶת־הַבָּנִ֖ים תִּֽקַּֽח־לָ֑ךְ לְמַ֙עַן֙ יִ֣יטַב לָ֔ךְ וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ֖ יָמִֽים׃ס [thou shalt in any wise let the dam go, but the young thou mayest take unto thyself; that it may be well with thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.591/) ## 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:DEU:584 # text = שַׁלֵּ֤חַ תְּשַׁלַּח֙ אֶת־הָאֵ֔ם וְאֶת־הַבָּנִ֖ים תִּֽקַּֽח־לָ֑ךְ לְמַ֙עַן֙ יִ֣יטַב לָ֔ךְ וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ֖ יָמִֽים׃ס # verse = DEU.22.7 1 שַׁלֵּ֤חַ שָׁלַח VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 2 obl:npmod _ Gloss=certainly.(let.go)|Ref=DEU_22:7!1|MId=o050220070011|Strong=7971|Type=infinitive_absolute 2 תְּשַׁלַּח֙ שָׁלַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=you.will.let.go|Ref=DEU_22:7!2|MId=o050220070021|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:050210210111;A1:050220070042;|Type=yiqtol 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 5 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_22:7!3|MId=o050220070031|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 הָאֵ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 5 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_22:7!4|MId=o050220070041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 5 אֵ֔ם אֵם NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 2 obj _ Gloss=mother|Ref=DEU_22:7!4|MId=o050220070042|Strong=0517 6-7 וְאֶת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 10 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_22:7!5|MId=o050220070051|Strong=2050b 7 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=DEU_22:7!5|MId=o050220070052|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 8-9 הַבָּנִ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 9 det _ Gloss=the.young|Ref=DEU_22:7!6|MId=o050220070061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 9 בָּנִ֖ים בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 10 obj _ Gloss=ones|Ref=DEU_22:7!6|MId=o050220070062|Strong=1121 10 תִּֽקַּֽח־ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 2 conj _ Gloss=you.will.take|Ref=DEU_22:7!7|MId=o050220070071|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:050210210111;A1:050220070062;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 לָ֑ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 ל לְ ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=DEU_22:7!8|MId=o050220070081|Strong=3807a 12 ָ֑ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 obl _ Gloss=yourself|Ref=DEU_22:7!8|MId=o050220070082|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 13 לְמַ֙עַן֙ לְמַעַן SCONJ _ _ 14 mark _ Gloss=so.that|Ref=DEU_22:7!9|MId=o050220070091|Strong=4616 14 יִ֣יטַב יָטַב VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=it.may.go.well|Ref=DEU_22:7!10|MId=o050220070101|Strong=3190|Frame=A0:;|Type=yiqtol 15-16 לָ֔ךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 ל לְ ADP _ _ 16 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=DEU_22:7!11|MId=o050220070111|Strong=3807a 16 ָ֔ךְ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=DEU_22:7!11|MId=o050220070112|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 17-18 וְהַאֲרַכְתָּ֖ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 18 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_22:7!12|MId=o050220070121|Strong=2050b 18 הַאֲרַכְתָּ֖ אָרַךְ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=2 14 conj _ Gloss=you.will.prolong|Ref=DEU_22:7!12|MId=o050220070122|Strong=0748|Frame=AA:050210210111;A0:050220070131;|Type=weqatal 19 יָמִֽים יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 18 obj _ Gloss=days|Ref=DEU_22:7!13|MId=o050220070131|Strong=3117|SpaceAfter=No 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=DEU_22:7!13|SpaceAfter=No 21 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=DEU_22:7!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: request - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no - indirect: yes | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תְּשַׁלַּח *you will let go* | yiqtol · piel | | אֵם *mother* | | | | תִּֽקַּֽח־ *you will take* | yiqtol · qal | | בָּנִים *ones* | | | | יִיטַב *it may go well* | yiqtol · qal | | | | | | הַאֲרַכְתָּ *you will prolong* | weqatal · hiphil | יָמִֽים *days* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
