Real steam is an invisible gas; the white cloud from a kettle is tiny water droplets formed as the steam cools, so the real steam is in the clear gap right at the spout.
Who acts: Real steam, white cloud, steam · What happens: be, form, cool · To what, where: invisible gas, tiny water droplets, clear gap
This is a sentence of the lesson «Solids, liquids and gases» 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 (Real steam, white cloud, steam), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
