Lesson 8 of the ukrainian street course of Mova's primary school, as Mova's small model took its tests: it had read this lesson and the ones before it and learned from their exercises. Each test shows the options in the order the student saw them, its choice, the right answer, the score of every option and why it chose. The lesson itself, sentence by sentence with trees and pragmatics: [the lesson in the corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/ukrainian-street/8-counting-on-nine-to-eighty/).

### Test 1 · ★ · wrong ✗ {#t1}

<!-- .q -->
«p'yatNAdtsyat, p'yatdesYAt, both fifty right» Which is right?

- **1.** Both are fifteen — **← Mova's choice** · no support
- **2.** p'yatNAdtsyat is 5, p'yatdesYAt is 50 — no support
- **3.** Yes, both are fifty — no support
- **4.** No: p'yatNAdtsyat is 15, p'yatdesYAt is 50 — **✓ the right answer** · no support

<!-- .why -->
**Why:** No option found support in what it remembers, so it guessed: it took the first option shown. · [the question and its options parsed, with trees and pragmatics](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/questions/ukrainian-street/8-counting-on-nine-to-eighty/t1/)

### Test 2 · ★ · right ✓ {#t2}

<!-- .q -->
«forty must be chotyRYdesyat, like four + ty» Which is right?

- **1.** Yes, chotyRYdesyat is forty — no support
- **2.** Forty is chotyrNAdtsyat — no support
- **3.** No, forty is its own word, SOrok — **← Mova's choice** · **✓ the right answer** · score 2
- **4.** Forty is TRYdtsyat — no support

<!-- .why -->
**Why:** It took the question to ask which statement is true. It chose option 3 with score 2, the only option with support. Its support: lesson 8, line 4: «And there is one odd one out: forty is not «four-ty» but a word all of its own, SOrok — so when the seeker in hide-and-seek counts to forty, listen for SOrok.», reached through the option's own match among the sentences about the question's things. What matched: the same doer «forty» (+2); the same thing acted on «four ty» (+2); the same light verb (be, have, do, get, go) (+1). Against it: one says «not», the other does not (counts against) (-3). · [the question and its options parsed, with trees and pragmatics](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/questions/ukrainian-street/8-counting-on-nine-to-eighty/t2/)

- **3.** To nine — score 6
- **4.** To ten — **✓ the right answer** · score 6

<!-- .why -->
**Why:** It took the question to ask what something is like. It chose option 1 with score 6, tied with another option at 6 (the first shown, or the one claiming less beyond what it knows, wins). Its support: lesson 8, line 4: «And there is one odd one out: forty is not «four-ty» but a word all of its own, SOrok — so when the seeker in hide-and-seek counts to forty, listen for SOrok.», reached through the remembered sentence the question matched. What matched: the same doer «seeker» (+4); the same action «count» (+2). The right option, 4, scored 6. · [the question and its options parsed, with trees and pragmatics](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/questions/ukrainian-street/8-counting-on-nine-to-eighty/t3/)
