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 — taskmasters, ye, your — and what happens in the verse to officers, appointed task, brick, 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. וַיֻּכּ֗וּ שֹֽׁטְרֵי֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֲשֶׁר־שָׂ֣מוּ עֲלֵהֶ֔ם נֹגְשֵׂ֥י פַרְעֹ֖ה לֵאמֹ֑ר מַדּ֡וּעַ לֹא֩ כִלִּיתֶ֨ם חָקְכֶ֤ם לִלְבֹּן֙ כִּתְמ֣וֹל שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם גַּם־תְּמ֖וֹל גַּם־הַיּֽוֹם׃ [And the officers of the children of Israel, whom Pharaoh's taskmasters had set over them, were beaten, saying: 'Wherefore have ye not fulfilled your appointed task in making brick both yesterday and today as heretofore?'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/EXO.130/) ## 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:113 # text = וַיֻּכּ֗וּ שֹֽׁטְרֵי֙ בְּנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֲשֶׁר־שָׂ֣מוּ עֲלֵהֶ֔ם נֹגְשֵׂ֥י פַרְעֹ֖ה לֵאמֹ֑ר מַדּ֡וּעַ לֹא֩ כִלִּיתֶ֨ם חָקְכֶ֤ם לִלְבֹּן֙ כִּתְמ֣וֹל שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם גַּם־תְּמ֖וֹל גַּם־הַיּֽוֹם׃ # verse = EXO.5.14 1-2 וַיֻּכּ֗וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=EXO_5:14!1|MId=o020050140011|Strong=2050b 2 יֻּכּ֗וּ נָכָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HOPHAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=they.were.struck|Ref=EXO_5:14!1|MId=o020050140012|Strong=5221|Frame=A1:020050140021;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 שֹֽׁטְרֵי֙ שֹׁטֵר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.foremen|Ref=EXO_5:14!2|MId=o020050140021|Strong=7860|Type=participle_active 4 בְּנֵ֣י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.the.people|Ref=EXO_5:14!3|MId=o020050140031|Strong=1121 5 יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 4 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=EXO_5:14!4|MId=o020050140041|Strong=3478 6 אֲשֶׁר־ אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=whom|Ref=EXO_5:14!5|MId=o020050140051|Strong=0834|Type=relative|SpaceAfter=No 7 שָׂ֣מוּ שׂים VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 3 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.had.appointed|Ref=EXO_5:14!6|MId=o020050140061|Strong=7760|Frame=A0:020050140081;A1:020050140021;|Type=qatal 8-9 עֲלֵהֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 עֲל עַל ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=over|Ref=EXO_5:14!7|MId=o020050140071|Strong=5921 9 ֵהֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 7 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=EXO_5:14!7|MId=o020050140072|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 10 נֹגְשֵׂ֥י נָגַשׂ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur 7 nsubj _ Gloss=the.taskmasters|Ref=EXO_5:14!8|MId=o020050140081|Strong=5065|Type=participle_active 11 פַרְעֹ֖ה פַּרְעֹה PROPN _ _ 10 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Pharaoh|Ref=EXO_5:14!9|MId=o020050140091|Strong=6547 12-13 לֵאמֹ֑ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 לֵ לְ ADP _ ExtPos=SCONJ 16 mark _ Gloss=(cmp)|Ref=EXO_5:14!10|MId=o020050140101|Strong=3807a 13 אמֹ֑ר אָמַר VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 12 fixed _ Gloss=|Ref=EXO_5:14!10|MId=o020050140102|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:020050140081;|Type=infinitive_construct 14 מַדּ֡וּעַ מַדּוּעַ ADV _ _ 16 advmod _ Gloss=why?|Ref=EXO_5:14!11|MId=o020050140111|Strong=4069|Type=interrogative 15 לֹא֩ לֹא ADV _ _ 16 advmod _ Gloss=not|Ref=EXO_5:14!12|MId=o020050140121|Strong=3808|Type=negative 16 כִלִּיתֶ֨ם כָּלָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Plur|Person=2 2 advcl _ Gloss=have.you.completed|Ref=EXO_5:14!13|MId=o020050140131|Strong=3615|Frame=A0:020050140021;020050140031;A1:020050140141;|Type=qatal 17-18 חָקְכֶ֤ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 חָק חֹק NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 obj _ Gloss=portion|Ref=EXO_5:14!14|MId=o020050140141|Strong=2706 18 ְכֶ֤ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 17 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your.prescribed|Ref=EXO_5:14!14|MId=o020050140142|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 19-20 לִלְבֹּן֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 20 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=EXO_5:14!15|MId=o020050140151|Strong=3807a 20 לְבֹּן֙ לָבַן VERB _ HebBinyan=QAL 16 xcomp _ Gloss=making.bricks|Ref=EXO_5:14!15|MId=o020050140152|Strong=3835a|Frame=A0:020050140021;020050140031;|Type=infinitive_construct 21-22 כִּתְמ֣וֹל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 כִּ כְּ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=as|Ref=EXO_5:14!16|MId=o020050140161|Strong=3509a 22 תְמ֣וֹל תְּמוֹל ADV _ _ 16 obl _ Gloss=yesterday|Ref=EXO_5:14!16|MId=o020050140162|Strong=8543 23 שִׁלְשֹׁ֔ם שִׁלְשֹׁום ADV _ _ 22 advmod _ Gloss=three.days.ago|Ref=EXO_5:14!17|MId=o020050140171|Strong=8032 24 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 25 advmod _ Gloss=neither|Ref=EXO_5:14!18|MId=o020050140181|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 25 תְּמ֖וֹל תְּמוֹל ADV _ _ 16 advmod _ Gloss=yesterday|Ref=EXO_5:14!19|MId=o020050140191|Strong=8543 26 גַּם־ גַּם ADV _ _ 28 advmod _ Gloss=nor|Ref=EXO_5:14!20|MId=o020050140201|Strong=1571|Type=affirmation|SpaceAfter=No 27-28 הַיּֽוֹם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 28 det _ Gloss=this|Ref=EXO_5:14!21|MId=o020050140211|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 יּֽוֹם יוֹם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 25 advmod _ Gloss=day|Ref=EXO_5:14!21|MId=o020050140212|Strong=3117 29 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 28 punct _ Ref=EXO_5:14!21 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
