Losing well and winning well, sentence 1

Hitting things doesn't let the anger out; studies suggest it tends to keep you angry, while slow breathing out calms the body down, so the trick is to breathe, shake hands, and be cross later in private.

Who acts: Hitting, studies, anger, trick · What happens: hit, not let out, suggest, tend, keep, breathe out · To what, where: things, anger, you, body, hands, private · 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): R7-rel-agree ×2, R8-pos-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.
