Then tell the person as early as you can and say sorry.
Who acts: you · What happens: tell, say · To what, where: person · Speech: someone speaks here
This is a sentence of the lesson «Promises» 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), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
