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 — you, man, thy — and what happens in the verse to vow, persons, 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 27 chapters of Leviticus on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם אִ֕ישׁ כִּ֥י יַפְלִ֖א נֶ֑דֶר בְּעֶרְכְּךָ֥ נְפָשֹׁ֖ת לַֽיהוָֽה׃ [Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: When a man shall clearly utter a vow of persons unto the LORD, according to thy valuation,](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/LEV.836/) ## 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:LEV:826 # text = דַּבֵּ֞ר אֶל־בְּנֵ֤י יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ אֲלֵהֶ֔ם אִ֕ישׁ כִּ֥י יַפְלִ֖א נֶ֑דֶר בְּעֶרְכְּךָ֥ נְפָשֹׁ֖ת לַֽיהוָֽה׃ # verse = LEV.27.2 1 דַּבֵּ֞ר דָבַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=PIEL|Number=Sing|Person=2 0 root _ Gloss=speak|Ref=LEV_27:2!1|MId=o030270020011|Strong=1696|Frame=A0:030270010041;|Type=imperative 2 אֶל־ אֶל ADP _ _ 3 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_27:2!2|MId=o030270020021|Strong=0413|SpaceAfter=No 3 בְּנֵ֤י בֵּן NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 1 obl _ Gloss=the.people|Ref=LEV_27:2!3|MId=o030270020031|Strong=1121 4 יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ יִשְׂרָאֵל PROPN _ _ 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.Israel|Ref=LEV_27:2!4|MId=o030270020041|Strong=3478 5-6 וְאָמַרְתָּ֣ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 6 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=LEV_27:2!5|MId=o030270020051|Strong=2050b 6 אָמַרְתָּ֣ אָמַר VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=2 1 conj _ Gloss=you.will.say|Ref=LEV_27:2!5|MId=o030270020052|Strong=0559|Frame=A0:030270010041;|Type=weqatal 7-8 אֲלֵהֶ֔ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 7 אֲל אֶל ADP _ _ 8 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_27:2!6|MId=o030270020061|Strong=0413 8 ֵהֶ֔ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 6 obl _ Gloss=them|Ref=LEV_27:2!6|MId=o030270020062|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 9 אִ֕ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 dislocated _ Gloss=anyone|Ref=LEV_27:2!7|MId=o030270020071|Strong=0376 10 כִּ֥י כִּי SCONJ _ _ 11 mark _ Gloss=(dm)|Ref=LEV_27:2!8|MId=o030270020081|Strong=3588 11 יַפְלִ֖א פָּלָא VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=HIPHIL|Number=Sing|Person=3 18 advcl _ Gloss=he.will.make.hard|Ref=LEV_27:2!9|MId=o030270020091|Strong=6381|Frame=AA:030270020071;A0:030270020101;|Type=yiqtol 12 נֶ֑דֶר נֶדֶר NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 11 obj _ Gloss=a.vow|Ref=LEV_27:2!10|MId=o030270020101|Strong=5088 13-15 בְּעֶרְכְּךָ֥ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 14 case _ Gloss=by|Ref=LEV_27:2!11|MId=o030270020111|Strong=0871a 14 עֶרְכּ עֵרֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 18 obl _ Gloss=valuation|Ref=LEV_27:2!11|MId=o030270020112|Strong=6187 15 ְךָ֥ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=2|PronType=Prs 14 nmod:poss _ Gloss=your|Ref=LEV_27:2!11|MId=o030270020113|Strong=3509b|Type=pronominal 16 נְפָשֹׁ֖ת נֶפֶשׁ NOUN _ Number=Plur 18 nsubj _ Gloss=of.persons|Ref=LEV_27:2!12|MId=o030270020121|Strong=5315 17-18 לַֽיהוָֽה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 לַֽ לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=LEV_27:2!13|MId=o030270020131|Strong=3807a 18 יהוָֽה יהוה PROPN _ _ 6 ccomp _ Gloss=Yahweh|Ref=LEV_27:2!13|MId=o030270020132|Strong=3068 19 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 18 punct _ Ref=LEV_27:2!13 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - voice: character - speech: a frame and its quote - negation: no - the frame alone: decl · assert · none | verb | form · stem | who (A0) | what, whom (A1) | to whom, further (A2) | who makes it happen (AA) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | דַּבֵּר *speak* | imperative · piel | | | | | | אָמַרְתָּ *you will say* | weqatal · qal | | | | | | יַפְלִא *he will make hard* | yiqtol · hiphil | נֶדֶר *a vow* | | | אִישׁ *anyone* | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
