Molecules: when atoms join up, sentence 13

Our noses sense particular molecules; natural gas has no smell, so companies add a smelly chemical to make leaks noticeable.

Who acts: noses, natural gas, companies · What happens: sense, have, add, make · To what, where: particular molecules, smell, smelly chemical, leaks

This is a sentence of the lesson «Molecules: when atoms join up» of the chemistry 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 (noses, natural gas, companies), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

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.
