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 daughters, us, one people, 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 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְנָתַ֤נּוּ אֶת־בְּנֹתֵ֙ינוּ֙ לָכֶ֔ם וְאֶת־בְּנֹתֵיכֶ֖ם נִֽקַּֽח־לָ֑נוּ וְיָשַׁ֣בְנוּ אִתְּכֶ֔ם וְהָיִ֖ינוּ לְעַ֥ם אֶחָֽד׃ [then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.1071/) ## 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:GEN:996 # text = וְנָתַ֤נּוּ אֶת־בְּנֹתֵ֙ינוּ֙ לָכֶ֔ם וְאֶת־בְּנֹתֵיכֶ֖ם נִֽקַּֽח־לָ֑נוּ וְיָשַׁ֣בְנוּ אִתְּכֶ֔ם וְהָיִ֖ינוּ לְעַ֥ם אֶחָֽד׃ # verse = GEN.34.16 1-2 וְנָתַ֤נּוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_34:16!1|MId=o010340160011|Strong=2050b 2 נָתַ֤נּוּ נָתַן VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 0 root _ Gloss=we.will.give|Ref=GEN_34:16!1|MId=o010340160012|Strong=5414|Frame=A0:010340130021;A1:010340160031;|Type=weqatal 3 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 4 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_34:16!2|MId=o010340160021|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker|SpaceAfter=No 4-5 בְּנֹתֵ֙ינוּ֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 4 בְּנֹתֵ֙י בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 2 obj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=GEN_34:16!3|MId=o010340160031|Strong=1323 5 נוּ֙ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 4 nmod:poss _ Gloss=our|Ref=GEN_34:16!3|MId=o010340160032|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 6-7 לָכֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 ל לְ ADP _ _ 7 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=GEN_34:16!4|MId=o010340160041|Strong=3807a 7 ָכֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 2 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_34:16!4|MId=o010340160042|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 8-9 וְאֶת־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_34:16!5|MId=o010340160051|Strong=2050b 9 אֶת־ אֵת ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=(et)|Ref=GEN_34:16!5|MId=o010340160052|Strong=0853|Type=direct_object_marker 10-11 בְּנֹתֵיכֶ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 בְּנֹתֵי בַּת NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 obj _ Gloss=daughters|Ref=GEN_34:16!6|MId=o010340160061|Strong=1323 11 כֶ֖ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=GEN_34:16!6|MId=o010340160062|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 12 נִֽקַּֽח־ לָקַח VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=we.will.take|Ref=GEN_34:16!7|MId=o010340160071|Strong=3947|Frame=A0:010340130021;A1:010340160061;|Type=yiqtol|SpaceAfter=No 13-14 לָ֑נוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 ל לְ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=for|Ref=GEN_34:16!8|MId=o010340160081|Strong=3807a 14 ָ֑נוּ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Com|Number=Plur|Person=1|PronType=Prs 12 obl _ Gloss=ourselves|Ref=GEN_34:16!8|MId=o010340160082|Strong=5105a|Type=pronominal 15-16 וְיָשַׁ֣בְנוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 15 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 16 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_34:16!9|MId=o010340160091|Strong=2050b 16 יָשַׁ֣בְנוּ יָשַׁב VERB _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 2 conj _ Gloss=we.will.dwell|Ref=GEN_34:16!9|MId=o010340160092|Strong=3427|Frame=A0:010340130021;|Type=weqatal 17-18 אִתְּכֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 אִתּ אֵת ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=with|Ref=GEN_34:16!10|MId=o010340160101|Strong=0854 18 ְכֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 16 obl _ Gloss=you|Ref=GEN_34:16!10|MId=o010340160102|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 19-20 וְהָיִ֖ינוּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 22 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_34:16!11|MId=o010340160111|Strong=2050b 20 הָיִ֖ינוּ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=1 22 cop _ Gloss=we.will.become|Ref=GEN_34:16!11|MId=o010340160112|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:010340130021;|Type=weqatal 21-22 לְעַ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=(into).a|Ref=GEN_34:16!12|MId=o010340160121|Strong=3807a 22 עַ֥ם עַם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=people|Ref=GEN_34:16!12|MId=o010340160122|Strong=5971 23 אֶחָֽד אֶחָד NUM _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 22 nummod _ Gloss=one|Ref=GEN_34:16!13|MId=o010340160131|Strong=0259|Type=cardinal_number|SpaceAfter=No 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=GEN_34:16!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: promise - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נָתַנּוּ *we will give* | weqatal · qal | | בְּנֹתֵי *daughters* | | | | נִֽקַּֽח־ *we will take* | yiqtol · qal | | בְּנֹתֵי *daughters* | | | | יָשַׁבְנוּ *we will dwell* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | הָיִינוּ *we will become* | weqatal · qal | | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
