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 — flesh, swarming thing — and what happens in the verse to earth, 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. וַיִּגְוַ֞ע כָּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר ׀ הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ עַל־הָאָ֗רֶץ בָּע֤וֹף וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה וּבְכָל־הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וְכֹ֖ל הָאָדָֽם׃ [And all flesh perished that moved upon the earth, both fowl, and cattle, and beast, and every swarming thing that swarmeth upon the earth, and every man;](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/GEN.192/) ## 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:180 # text = וַיִּגְוַ֞ע כָּל־בָּשָׂ֣ר ׀ הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ עַל־הָאָ֗רֶץ בָּע֤וֹף וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה וּבְכָל־הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־הָאָ֑רֶץ וְכֹ֖ל הָאָדָֽם׃ # verse = GEN.7.21 1-2 וַיִּגְוַ֞ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וַ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_7:21!1|MId=o010070210011|Strong=2050b 2 יִּגְוַ֞ע גָּוַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.died|Ref=GEN_7:21!1|MId=o010070210012|Strong=1478|Frame=A0:010070210031;|Type=wayyiqtol 3 כָּל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=all|Ref=GEN_7:21!2|MId=o010070210021|Strong=3605|SpaceAfter=No 4 בָּשָׂ֣ר בָּשָׂר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=flesh|Ref=GEN_7:21!3|MId=o010070210031|Strong=1320 5 ׀ ׀ PUNCT _ _ 4 punct _ Ref=GEN_7:21!3 6-7 הָרֹמֵ֣שׂ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הָ הַ SCONJ _ _ 7 mark _ Gloss=[which]|Ref=GEN_7:21!4|MId=o010070210041|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 רֹמֵ֣שׂ רָמַשׂ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 4 appos _ Gloss=crept|Ref=GEN_7:21!4|MId=o010070210042|Strong=7430|Frame=A0:010070210031;|Type=participle_active 8 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 10 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=GEN_7:21!5|MId=o010070210051|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 9-10 הָאָ֗רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 9 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 10 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_7:21!6|MId=o010070210061|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 10 אָ֗רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 7 obl _ Gloss=earth|Ref=GEN_7:21!6|MId=o010070210062|Strong=0776 11-13 בָּע֤וֹף _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 11 בָּ בְּ ADP _ _ 13 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=GEN_7:21!7|MId=o010070210071|Strong=0871a 12 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 13 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_7:21!7|MId=o010070210071ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 13 ע֤וֹף עוֹף NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 obl _ Gloss=bird[s]|Ref=GEN_7:21!7|MId=o010070210072|Strong=5775 14-17 וּבַבְּהֵמָה֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 14 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 17 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_7:21!8|MId=o010070210081|Strong=2050b 15 בַ בְּ ADP _ _ 17 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=GEN_7:21!8|MId=o010070210082|Strong=0871a 16 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 17 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_7:21!8|MId=o010070210082ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 17 בְּהֵמָה֙ בְּהֵמָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=livestock|Ref=GEN_7:21!8|MId=o010070210083|Strong=0929 18-21 וּבַ֣חַיָּ֔ה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 18 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 21 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_7:21!9|MId=o010070210091|Strong=2050b 19 בַ֣ בְּ ADP _ _ 21 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=GEN_7:21!9|MId=o010070210092|Strong=0871a 20 ה הַ DET _ PronType=Art 21 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_7:21!9|MId=o010070210092ה|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 21 חַיָּ֔ה חַיָּה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=animal[s]|Ref=GEN_7:21!9|MId=o010070210093|Strong=2416c 22-24 וּבְכָל־ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 22 וּ וְ CCONJ _ _ 24 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_7:21!10|MId=o010070210101|Strong=2050b 23 בְ בְּ ADP _ _ 24 case _ Gloss=among|Ref=GEN_7:21!10|MId=o010070210102|Strong=0871a 24 כָל־ כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 13 conj _ Gloss=every|Ref=GEN_7:21!10|MId=o010070210103|Strong=3605 25-26 הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 25 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 26 det _ Gloss=(the).swarming|Ref=GEN_7:21!11|MId=o010070210111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 26 שֶּׁ֖רֶץ שֶׁרֶץ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 compound:smixut _ Gloss=thing|Ref=GEN_7:21!11|MId=o010070210112|Strong=8318 27-28 הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 27 הַ הַ SCONJ _ _ 28 mark _ Gloss=[which]|Ref=GEN_7:21!12|MId=o010070210121|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 28 שֹּׁרֵ֣ץ שָׁרַץ VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing 24 acl:relcl _ Gloss=swarms|Ref=GEN_7:21!12|MId=o010070210122|Strong=8317|Frame=A0:010070210112;|Type=participle_active 29 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 31 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=GEN_7:21!13|MId=o010070210131|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 30-31 הָאָ֑רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 30 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 31 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=GEN_7:21!14|MId=o010070210141|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 31 אָ֑רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 28 obl _ Gloss=earth|Ref=GEN_7:21!14|MId=o010070210142|Strong=0776 32-33 וְכֹ֖ל _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 32 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 33 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=GEN_7:21!15|MId=o010070210151|Strong=2050b 33 כֹ֖ל כֹּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 24 conj _ Gloss=every|Ref=GEN_7:21!15|MId=o010070210152|Strong=3605 34-35 הָאָדָֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 34 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 35 det _ Gloss=(the)|Ref=GEN_7:21!16|MId=o010070210161|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 35 אָדָֽם אָדָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 33 compound:smixut _ Gloss=human|Ref=GEN_7:21!16|MId=o010070210162|Strong=0120 36 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 35 punct _ Ref=GEN_7:21!16 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} -
