Birthday parties, sentence 3

The thought matters, not the price, so you never say how much a present cost; and some families and religions do not celebrate birthdays at all, which you respect.

Who acts: thought, you, families · What happens: matter, not say, not celebrate, respect · To what, where: much present cost, birthdays, all · Speech: someone speaks here

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, R6-punct-agree ×1. 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.
