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 — sons, thousand men — and what happens in the verse to Moses, 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. וַיַּֽעֲשׂ֥וּ בְנֵֽי־לֵוִ֖י כִּדְבַ֣ר מֹשֶׁ֑ה וַיִּפֹּ֤ל מִן־הָעָם֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא כִּשְׁלֹ֥שֶׁת אַלְפֵ֖י אִֽישׁ׃ [And the sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses; and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.973/) ## 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:933 # text = וַיַּֽעֲשׂ֥וּ בְנֵֽי־לֵוִ֖י כִּדְבַ֣ר מֹשֶׁ֑ה וַיִּפֹּ֤ל מִן־הָעָם֙ בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֔וּא כִּשְׁלֹ֥שֶׁת אַלְפֵ֖י אִֽישׁ׃ # verse = EXO.32.28 1-2 וַיַּֽעֲשׂ֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_32:28!1|MId=o020320280011|Strong=2050b 2 יַּֽעֲשׂ֥וּ עָשָׂה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.did|Ref=EXO_32:28!1|MId=o020320280012|Strong=6213|Frame=A0:020320280021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 בְנֵֽי־ בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.descendants|Ref=EXO_32:28!2|MId=o020320280021|Strong=1121|SpaceAfter=No 4 לֵוִ֖י לֵוִי PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Levi|Ref=EXO_32:28!3|MId=o020320280031|Strong=3878 5-6 כִּדְבַ֣ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 כִּ כְּ ADP _ _ 6 case _ Gloss=according|Ref=EXO_32:28!4|MId=o020320280041|Strong=3509a 6 דְבַ֣ר דָּבָר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=to.the.word|Ref=EXO_32:28!4|MId=o020320280042|Strong=1697 7 מֹשֶׁ֑ה מֹשֶׁה PROPN _ _ 6 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Moses|Ref=EXO_32:28!5|MId=o020320280051|Strong=4872 8-9 וַיִּפֹּ֤ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 9 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_32:28!6|MId=o020320280061|Strong=2050b 9 יִּפֹּ֤ל נָפַל VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 2 conj _ Gloss=he.fell|Ref=EXO_32:28!6|MId=o020320280062|Strong=5307|Frame=A0:020320280131;|Type=wayyiqtol 10 מִן־ מִן ADP _ _ 12 case _ Gloss=of|Ref=EXO_32:28!7|MId=o020320280071|Strong=4480|SpaceAfter=No 11-12 הָעָם֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 12 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_32:28!8|MId=o020320280081|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 12 עָם֙ עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=people|Ref=EXO_32:28!8|MId=o020320280082|Strong=5971 13-15 בַּיּ֣וֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בַּ בְּ ADP _ _ 15 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=EXO_32:28!9|MId=o020320280091|Strong=0871a 14 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 15 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=EXO_32:28!9|MId=o020320280091ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 15 יּ֣וֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 obl _ Gloss=day|Ref=EXO_32:28!9|MId=o020320280092|Strong=3117 16-17 הַה֔וּא _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 16 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=EXO_32:28!10|MId=o020320280101|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 ה֔וּא הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 15 det _ Gloss=that|Ref=EXO_32:28!10|MId=o020320280102|Strong=1931|Type=personal 18-19 כִּשְׁלֹ֥שֶׁת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 כִּ כְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=about|Ref=EXO_32:28!11|MId=o020320280111|Strong=3509a 19 שְׁלֹ֥שֶׁת שָׁלֹשׁ NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 21 nummod _ Gloss=three|Ref=EXO_32:28!11|MId=o020320280112|Strong=7969|Type=cardinal_number 20 אַלְפֵ֖י אֶלֶף NUM _ Number=Plur 19 flat _ Gloss=thousand(s)|Ref=EXO_32:28!12|MId=o020320280121|Strong=0505|Type=cardinal_number 21 אִֽישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=person[s]|Ref=EXO_32:28!13|MId=o020320280131|Strong=0376|SpaceAfter=No 22 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 21 punct _ Ref=EXO_32:28!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: narrate - voice: narrator - speech: narration - negation: no | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יַּֽעֲשׂוּ *they did* | wayyiqtol · qal | בְנֵֽי־ *the descendants* | | | | | יִּפֹּל *he fell* | wayyiqtol · qal | אִֽישׁ *person\[s\]* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
