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 — we — and what happens in the verse to cities, city, 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. וַנַּחֲרֵ֣ם אוֹתָ֔ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֔ינוּ לְסִיחֹ֖ן מֶ֣לֶךְ חֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן הַחֲרֵם֙ כָּל־עִ֣יר מְתִ֔ם הַנָּשִׁ֖ים וְהַטָּֽף׃ [And we utterly destroyed them, as we did unto Sihon king of Heshbon, utterly destroying every city, the men, and the women, and the little ones.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/DEU.89/) ## 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:88 # text = וַנַּחֲרֵ֣ם אוֹתָ֔ם כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂ֔ינוּ לְסִיחֹ֖ן מֶ֣לֶךְ חֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן הַחֲרֵם֙ כָּל־עִ֣יר מְתִ֔ם הַנָּשִׁ֖ים וְהַטָּֽף׃ # verse = DEU.3.6 1-2 וַנַּחֲרֵ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_3:6!1|MId=o050030060011|Strong=2050b 2 נַּחֲרֵ֣ם חָרַם VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Plur|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=we.totally.destroyed|Ref=DEU_3:6!1|MId=o050030060012|Strong=2763|Frame=AA:050010050061;050010030121;A0:050030060022;|Type=wayyiqtol 3-4 אוֹתָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 אוֹת אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=|Ref=DEU_3:6!2|MId=o050030060021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 4 ָ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 2 obj _ Gloss=them|Ref=DEU_3:6!2|MId=o050030060022|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 5-6 כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=just|Ref=DEU_3:6!3|MId=o050030060031|Strong=3509a 6 אֲשֶׁ֣ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=as|Ref=DEU_3:6!3|MId=o050030060032|Strong=0834|Type=relative 7 עָשִׂ֔ינוּ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 5 acl:relcl _ Gloss=we.had.done|Ref=DEU_3:6!4|MId=o050030060041|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:050010050061;050010030121;|Type=qatal 8-9 לְסִיחֹ֖ן _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=DEU_3:6!5|MId=o050030060051|Strong=3807a 9 סִיחֹ֖ן סִיחוֹן PROPN _ _ 7 obl _ Gloss=Sihon|Ref=DEU_3:6!5|MId=o050030060052|Strong=5511 10 מֶ֣לֶךְ מֶלֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 appos _ Gloss=the.king|Ref=DEU_3:6!6|MId=o050030060061|Strong=4428 11 חֶשְׁבּ֑וֹן חֶשְׁבּוֹן PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Heshbon|Ref=DEU_3:6!7|MId=o050030060071|Strong=2809 12 הַחֲרֵם֙ חָרַם VERB _ HebBinyan=HIPHIL 7 advcl _ Gloss=we.totally.destroyed|Ref=DEU_3:6!8|MId=o050030060081|Strong=2763|Frame=AA:050010050061;050010030121;A0:050030060101;|Type=infinitive_absolute 13 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 obj _ Gloss=every|Ref=DEU_3:6!9|MId=o050030060091|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 14 עִ֣יר עִיר NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 compound:smixut _ Gloss=city|Ref=DEU_3:6!10|MId=o050030060101|Strong=5892 15 מְתִ֔ם מַת NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 14 appos _ Gloss=of.men|Ref=DEU_3:6!11|MId=o050030060111|Strong=4962 16-17 הַנָּשִׁ֖ים _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=DEU_3:6!12|MId=o050030060121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 נָּשִׁ֖ים אִשָּׁה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 15 conj _ Gloss=women|Ref=DEU_3:6!12|MId=o050030060122|Strong=0802 18-20 וְהַטָּֽף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 20 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=DEU_3:6!13|MId=o050030060131|Strong=2050b 19 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the.little|Ref=DEU_3:6!13|MId=o050030060132|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 טָּֽף טַף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 15 conj _ Gloss=one[s]|Ref=DEU_3:6!13|MId=o050030060133|Strong=2945 21 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 20 punct _ Ref=DEU_3:6!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: inside a quote begun earlier - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נַּחֲרֵם *we totally destroyed* | wayyiqtol · hiphil | ָם *them* | | | | | עָשִׂינוּ *we had done* | qatal · qal | | | | | | הַחֲרֵם *we totally destroyed* | infinitive absolute · hiphil | עִיר *city* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
