Earth from space, sentence 3

Space myths grow from what things look like: astronauts float, so "there's no gravity up there"; it's warm in summer, so "we must be closer to the Sun"; the Sun crosses the sky, so "it goes round us".

Who acts: Space myths, things, astronauts, gravity, thing, we · What happens: grow, look, float, be, cross, go · To what, where: sky · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of the lesson «Earth from space» of the myths 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 (Space myths, things, astronauts, gravity), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

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): R6-punct-agree ×3, R7-rel-agree ×1, R8-pos-agree ×2. 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.
