Maps and scale, sentence 0
A map is the world shrunk by the same amount everywhere, so a ruler on paper can still measure real distances.
Who acts: map, ruler · What happens: be, shrink, measure · To what, where: world, real distances
This is a sentence of the lesson «Maps and scale» of the geography 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 (map, ruler), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
