This is a sentence of the lesson «Wants and needs» of the money 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 (need, you, want), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
