Jonah 4:7 יוֹנָה

Who acts: God, morning, worm, gourd · What happens: prepare, rise, smite, wither · To what, where: worm, gourd

This is Jonah 4:7 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). 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 — God, morning, worm, gourd — and what happens in the verse to worm, gourd, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan 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 4 chapters of Jonah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַיְמַ֤ן הָֽאֱלֹהִים֙ תּוֹלַ֔עַת בַּעֲל֥וֹת הַשַּׁ֖חַר לַֽמָּחֳרָ֑ת וַתַּ֥ךְ אֶת־הַקִּֽיקָי֖וֹן וַיִּיבָֽשׁ׃

But God prepared a worm when the morning rose the next day, and it smote the gourd, that it withered.

The 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.

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

Targum Jonathan

וְזַמֵין יְיָ יַת תּוֹלַעְתָּא בְּמֵיסַק צַפְרָא בְּיוֹמָא דְבַתְרוֹהִי וּמְחָא יַת קִיקָיוֹן וִיבָשׁ:

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
