Pressure tricks: pumps, tyres and vacuums, sentence 12
A pressure cooker traps steam so the pressure rises and water boils at a higher temperature, which cooks food faster; it has a safety valve and only grown-ups use it.
Who acts: pressure cooker, pressure, water, higher temperature, grown ups · What happens: trap, rise, boil, cook, have, grow · To what, where: steam, higher temperature, food, safety valve, pressure
This is a sentence of the lesson «Pressure tricks: pumps, tyres and vacuums» of the physics 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 (pressure cooker, pressure, water, higher temperature), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
