How the Solar System was born, sentence 10
Close to the Sun only rock and metal could stay solid, but beyond the frost line, around where the asteroid belt is now, ice could form too, so the outer planets grew much bigger.
Who acts: rock, asteroid belt, outer planets · What happens: stay, be, grow
This is a sentence of the lesson «How the Solar System was born» of the space 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 (rock, asteroid belt, outer planets), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.
