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 — Egyptians, We — and what happens in the verse to Egyptians, land, dead men, 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 40 chapters of Exodus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וַתֶּחֱזַ֤ק מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ עַל־הָעָ֔ם לְמַהֵ֖ר לְשַׁלְּחָ֣ם מִן־הָאָ֑רֶץ כִּ֥י אָמְר֖וּ כֻּלָּ֥נוּ מֵתִֽים׃ [And the Egyptians were urgent upon the people, to send them out of the land in haste; for they said: 'We are all dead men.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.343/) ## 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:EXO:316 # text = וַתֶּחֱזַ֤ק מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ עַל־הָעָ֔ם לְמַהֵ֖ר לְשַׁלְּחָ֣ם מִן־הָאָ֑רֶץ כִּ֥י אָמְר֖וּ כֻּלָּ֥נוּ מֵתִֽים׃ # verse = EXO.12.33 1-2 וַתֶּחֱזַ֤ק _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_12:33!1|MId=o020120330011|Strong=2050b 2 תֶּחֱזַ֤ק חָזַק VERB _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.urged|Ref=EXO_12:33!1|MId=o020120330012|Strong=2388|Frame=A0:020120330021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 מִצְרַ֙יִם֙ מִצְרַיִם PROPN _ _ 2 nsubj _ Gloss=Egypt|Ref=EXO_12:33!2|MId=o020120330021|Strong=4714 4 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EXO_12:33!3|MId=o020120330031|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 5-6 הָעָ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_12:33!4|MId=o020120330041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 עָ֔ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=people|Ref=EXO_12:33!4|MId=o020120330042|Strong=5971 7-8 לְמַהֵ֖ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_12:33!5|MId=o020120330051|Strong=3807a 8 מַהֵ֖ר מָהַר VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 2 advcl _ Gloss=hurry|Ref=EXO_12:33!5|MId=o020120330052|Strong=4116|Frame=A0:020120330021;|Type=infinitive_construct 9-11 לְשַׁלְּחָ֣ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=EXO_12:33!6|MId=o020120330061|Strong=3807a 10 שַׁלְּח שָׁלַח VERB _ HebBinyan=PIEL 8 xcomp _ Gloss=send|Ref=EXO_12:33!6|MId=o020120330062|Strong=7971|Frame=A0:020120330021;A1:020120330063;|Type=infinitive_construct 11 ָ֣ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 obj _ Gloss=them.away|Ref=EXO_12:33!6|MId=o020120330063|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 12 מִן־ מִן ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=from|Ref=EXO_12:33!7|MId=o020120330071|Strong=4480|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 הָאָ֑רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_12:33!8|MId=o020120330081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 אָ֑רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 10 obl _ Gloss=land|Ref=EXO_12:33!8|MId=o020120330082|Strong=0776 15 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 16 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=EXO_12:33!9|MId=o020120330091|Strong=3588 16 אָמְר֖וּ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 advcl _ Gloss=they.said|Ref=EXO_12:33!10|MId=o020120330101|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:020120330021;|Type=qatal 17-18 כֻּלָּ֥נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 כֻּלּ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 19 nsubj _ Gloss=of.us|Ref=EXO_12:33!11|MId=o020120330111|Strong=3605 18 ָ֥נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=all|Ref=EXO_12:33!11|MId=o020120330112|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 19 מֵתִֽים מוּת VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 16 ccomp _ Gloss=[are].about.to.die|Ref=EXO_12:33!12|MId=o020120330121|Strong=4191|Frame=A0:020120330112;|Type=participle_active|SpaceAfter=No 20 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 19 punct _ Ref=EXO_12:33!12 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | תֶּחֱזַק *it urged* | wayyiqtol · qal | מִצְרַיִם *Egypt* | | | | | מַהֵר *hurry* | infinitive construct · piel | מִצְרַיִם *Egypt* | | | | | שַׁלְּח *send* | infinitive construct · piel | מִצְרַיִם *Egypt* | ָם *them away* | | | | אָמְרוּ *they said* | qatal · qal | מִצְרַיִם *Egypt* | | | | | מֵתִֽים *\[are\] about to die* | participle active · qal | ָנוּ *all* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
