The big language quiz, sentence 2
Along the way you have seen that every language and every dialect is a full, working system: "arvo" in Sydney, "craic" in Dublin, "cwtch" in Cardiff, "Мамо!" in Kyiv and "mā" in Beijing all do their job perfectly.
Who acts: you, language · What happens: see, work, be, do, job · To what, where: full working system, job · Speech: someone speaks here
This is a sentence of the lesson «The big language quiz» of the language 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, language), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
