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 — border, this — and what happens in the verse to Salt Sea, land, 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. וְיָרַ֤ד הַגְּבוּל֙ הַיַּרְדֵּ֔נָה וְהָי֥וּ תוֹצְאֹתָ֖יו יָ֣ם הַמֶּ֑לַח זֹאת֩ תִּהְיֶ֨ה לָכֶ֥ם הָאָ֛רֶץ לִגְבֻלֹתֶ֖יהָ סָבִֽיב׃ [and the border shall go down to the Jordan, and the goings out thereof shall be at the Salt Sea; this shall be your land according to the borders thereof round about.'](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/torah/jps/NUM.1258/) ## 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:1224 # text = וְיָרַ֤ד הַגְּבוּל֙ הַיַּרְדֵּ֔נָה וְהָי֥וּ תוֹצְאֹתָ֖יו יָ֣ם הַמֶּ֑לַח זֹאת֩ תִּהְיֶ֨ה לָכֶ֥ם הָאָ֛רֶץ לִגְבֻלֹתֶ֖יהָ סָבִֽיב׃ # verse = NUM.34.12 1-2 וְיָרַ֤ד _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 1 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 2 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_34:12!1|MId=o040340120011|Strong=2050b 2 יָרַ֤ד יָרַד VERB _ Gender=Masc|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 0 root _ Gloss=it.will.go.down|Ref=NUM_34:12!1|MId=o040340120012|Strong=3381|Frame=A0:040340120022;|Type=weqatal 3-4 הַגְּבוּל֙ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 3 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 4 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_34:12!2|MId=o040340120021|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 4 גְּבוּל֙ גְּבוּל NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 nsubj _ Gloss=border|Ref=NUM_34:12!2|MId=o040340120022|Strong=1366 5-7 הַיַּרְדֵּ֔נָה _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 5 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 6 det _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_34:12!3|MId=o040340120031|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 6 יַּרְדֵּ֔נ יַרְדֵּן PROPN _ _ 2 obl _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_34:12!3|MId=o040340120032|Strong=3383 7 ָה ה X _ _ 6 nmod _ Gloss=Jordan|Ref=NUM_34:12!3|MId=o040340120033|Strong=1886c|Type=directional_he 8-9 וְהָי֥וּ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 8 וְ וְ CCONJ _ _ 12 cc _ Gloss=and|Ref=NUM_34:12!4|MId=o040340120041|Strong=2050b 9 הָי֥וּ הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Com|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Plur|Person=3 12 cop _ Gloss=they.will.be|Ref=NUM_34:12!4|MId=o040340120042|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040340120051;|Type=weqatal 10-11 תוֹצְאֹתָ֖יו _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 10 תוֹצְאֹתָ֖י תֹּוצָאֹות NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 12 nsubj _ Gloss=extremities|Ref=NUM_34:12!5|MId=o040340120051|Strong=8444 11 ו הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 10 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=NUM_34:12!5|MId=o040340120052|Strong=2050c|Type=pronominal 12 יָ֣ם יָם NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 2 conj _ Gloss=the.Sea|Ref=NUM_34:12!6|MId=o040340120061|Strong=3220 13-14 הַמֶּ֑לַח _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 13 הַ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 14 det _ Gloss=of.(the)|Ref=NUM_34:12!7|MId=o040340120071|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 14 מֶּ֑לַח מֶלַח NOUN _ Gender=Masc|Number=Sing 12 compound:smixut _ Gloss=Salt|Ref=NUM_34:12!7|MId=o040340120072|Strong=4417 15 זֹאת֩ זֹאת PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|PronType=Dem 20 nsubj _ Gloss=this|Ref=NUM_34:12!8|MId=o040340120081|Strong=2063|Type=demonstrative 16 תִּהְיֶ֨ה הָיָה AUX _ Gender=Fem|HebBinyan=QAL|Number=Sing|Person=3 20 cop _ Gloss=it.will.be|Ref=NUM_34:12!9|MId=o040340120091|Strong=1961|Frame=A0:040340120081;|Type=yiqtol 17-18 לָכֶ֥ם _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 17 ל לְ ADP _ _ 18 case _ Gloss=|Ref=NUM_34:12!10|MId=o040340120101|Strong=3807a 18 ָכֶ֥ם הוּא PRON _ Gender=Masc|Number=Plur|Person=2|PronType=Prs 20 obl _ Gloss=your|Ref=NUM_34:12!10|MId=o040340120102|Strong=3641b|Type=pronominal 19-20 הָאָ֛רֶץ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 19 הָ הַ DET _ PronType=Art 20 det _ Gloss=the|Ref=NUM_34:12!11|MId=o040340120111|Strong=1886a|Type=definite_article 20 אָ֛רֶץ אֶרֶץ NOUN _ Number=Sing 2 parataxis _ Gloss=land|Ref=NUM_34:12!11|MId=o040340120112|Strong=0776 21-23 לִגְבֻלֹתֶ֖יהָ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 21 לִ לְ ADP _ _ 22 case _ Gloss=to|Ref=NUM_34:12!12|MId=o040340120121|Strong=3807a 22 גְבֻלֹתֶ֖י גְּבוּלָה NOUN _ Gender=Fem|Number=Plur 20 obl _ Gloss=borders|Ref=NUM_34:12!12|MId=o040340120122|Strong=1367 23 הָ הוּא PRON _ Gender=Fem|Number=Sing|Person=3|PronType=Prs 22 nmod:poss _ Gloss=its|Ref=NUM_34:12!12|MId=o040340120123|Strong=1886d|Type=pronominal 24 סָבִֽיב סָבִיב ADV _ Number=Sing 22 advmod _ Gloss=all.around|Ref=NUM_34:12!13|MId=o040340120131|Strong=5439|SpaceAfter=No 25 ׃ ׃ PUNCT _ _ 24 punct _ Ref=NUM_34:12!13 ``` ## 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) | | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | | יָרַד *it will go down* | weqatal · qal | גְּבוּל *border* | | | | | הָיוּ *they will be* | weqatal · qal | תוֹצְאֹתָי *extremities* | | | | | תִּהְיֶה *it will be* | yiqtol · qal | זֹאת *this* | | | | MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant.
