Special effects and stunts, sentence 14

To show an actor much younger, films use make-up, a younger actor, or computers, which is called de-ageing; some viewers love it and others say it looks strange, so it is argued.

Who acts: films, viewers, others, ageing · What happens: show, use, call, love, say, look · To what, where: actor, make, computers, ageing · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «Special effects and stunts» of the arts course of Mova's primary school. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (films, viewers, others, ageing), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

The tree: Mova annot: Rust (en) → Haiku 5.5 (medium, Batches API) patches; gates UD 2.18; agreed by treeagree rules (Stanza, Trankit, spaCy trf): no change. The frames are read from the tree by Mova's frames reader (prag) when this page is built, the lesson read in order, so a pronoun may be resolved from an earlier sentence.
