Reasoning about the body moving in the world, sentence 1

You stay up when your centre of gravity is above your feet; on a slope you lean forward going up and keep your knees bent and your steps small going down, so your weight stays over your feet even though the ground is tilted.

Who acts: You, centre, weight, your · What happens: stay up, be, lean, go up, keep, go down · To what, where: feet, slope, knees, ground

This is a sentence of the lesson «Reasoning about the body moving in the world» of the everyday 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 (You, centre, weight, your), 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): R1-cc-next ×2, R7-rel-agree ×2. 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.
