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 — tent, hosts — and what happens in the verse to midst, 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 36 chapters of Numbers on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. וְנָסַ֧ע אֹֽהֶל־מוֹעֵ֛ד מַחֲנֵ֥ה הַלְוִיִּ֖ם בְּת֣וֹךְ הַֽמַּחֲנֹ֑ת כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר יַחֲנוּ֙ כֵּ֣ן יִסָּ֔עוּ אִ֥ישׁ עַל־יָד֖וֹ לְדִגְלֵיהֶֽם׃ס [Then the tent of meeting, with the camp of the Levites, shall set forward in the midst of the camps; as they encamp, so shall they set forward, every man in his place, by their standards.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.70/) ## 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:NUM:70 # text = וְנָסַ֧ע אֹֽהֶל־מוֹעֵ֛ד מַחֲנֵ֥ה הַלְוִיִּ֖ם בְּת֣וֹךְ הַֽמַּחֲנֹ֑ת כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר יַחֲנוּ֙ כֵּ֣ן יִסָּ֔עוּ אִ֥ישׁ עַל־יָד֖וֹ לְדִגְלֵיהֶֽם׃ס # verse = NUM.2.17 1-2 וְנָסַ֧ע _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_2:17!1|MId=o040020170011|Strong=2050b 2 נָסַ֧ע נָסַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.set.out|Ref=NUM_2:17!1|MId=o040020170012|Strong=5265|Frame=A0:040020170021;|Type=weqatal 3 אֹֽהֶל־ אֹהֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=the.tent|Ref=NUM_2:17!2|MId=o040020170021|Strong=0168|SpaceAfter=No 4 מוֹעֵ֛ד מוֹעֵד NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 3 compound:smixut _ Gloss=of.meeting|Ref=NUM_2:17!3|MId=o040020170031|Strong=4150 5 מַחֲנֵ֥ה מַחֲנֶה NOUN _ Number=Sing 9 nsubj _ Gloss=the.camp|Ref=NUM_2:17!4|MId=o040020170041|Strong=4264 6-7 הַלְוִיִּ֖ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 6 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 7 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_2:17!5|MId=o040020170051|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 7 לְוִיִּ֖ם לֵוִי NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 5 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.Levites|Ref=NUM_2:17!5|MId=o040020170052|Strong=3881|Type=gentilic 8-9 בְּת֣וֹךְ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 בְּ בְּ ADP _ _ 9 case _ Gloss=[will|Ref=NUM_2:17!6|MId=o040020170061|Strong=0871a 9 ת֣וֹךְ תָּוֶךְ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=be].in.the.middle|Ref=NUM_2:17!6|MId=o040020170062|Strong=8432 10-11 הַֽמַּחֲנֹ֑ת _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 הַֽ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 11 det _ Gloss=of|Ref=NUM_2:17!7|MId=o040020170071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 11 מַּחֲנֹ֑ת מַחֲנֶה NOUN _ Number=Plur 9 compound:smixut _ Gloss=the.camps|Ref=NUM_2:17!7|MId=o040020170072|Strong=4264 12-13 כַּאֲשֶׁ֤ר _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 12 כַּ כְּ ADP _ _ 16 obl _ Gloss=just|Ref=NUM_2:17!8|MId=o040020170081|Strong=3509a 13 אֲשֶׁ֤ר אֲשֶׁר SCONJ _ _ 14 mark _ Gloss=as|Ref=NUM_2:17!8|MId=o040020170082|Strong=0834|Type=relative 14 יַחֲנוּ֙ חָנָה VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 12 acl:relcl _ Gloss=they.will.encamp|Ref=NUM_2:17!9|MId=o040020170091|Strong=2583|Frame=A0:040020170072;|Type=yiqtol 15 כֵּ֣ן כֵּן ADV _ _ 16 advmod _ Gloss=so|Ref=NUM_2:17!10|MId=o040020170101|Strong=3651|Type=demonstrative 16 יִסָּ֔עוּ נָסַע VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 2 parataxis _ Gloss=they.will.set.out|Ref=NUM_2:17!11|MId=o040020170111|Strong=5265|Frame=A0:040020170072;|Type=yiqtol 17 אִ֥ישׁ אִישׁ NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 16 parataxis _ Gloss=each|Ref=NUM_2:17!12|MId=o040020170121|Strong=0376 18 עַל־ עַל ADP _ _ 19 case _ Gloss=on|Ref=NUM_2:17!13|MId=o040020170131|Strong=5921|SpaceAfter=No 19-20 יָד֖וֹ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 יָד יָד NOUN _ Number=Sing 17 obl _ Gloss=hand|Ref=NUM_2:17!14|MId=o040020170141|Strong=3027 20 ֖וֹ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 19 nmod:poss _ Gloss=his|Ref=NUM_2:17!14|MId=o040020170142|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 21-23 לְדִגְלֵיהֶֽם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לְ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_2:17!15|MId=o040020170151|Strong=3807a 22 דִגְלֵי דֶּגֶל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur 17 obl _ Gloss=standards|Ref=NUM_2:17!15|MId=o040020170152|Strong=1714 23 הֶֽם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=their|Ref=NUM_2:17!15|MId=o040020170153|Strong=3963a|Type=pronominal 24 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=NUM_2:17!15|SpaceAfter=No 25 ס ס PUNCT _ _ 23 punct _ Ref=NUM_2:17!15 ``` ## Pragmatics {#pragmatics} - form: statement - act: assert - 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | נָסַע *it will set out* | weqatal · qal | אֹֽהֶל־ *the tent* | | | | | יַחֲנוּ *they will encamp* | yiqtol · qal | מַּחֲנֹת *the camps* | | | | | יִסָּעוּ *they will set out* | yiqtol · qal | מַּחֲנֹת *the camps* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
