Batteries, sentence 17

A battery's percentage is an estimate made by a small chip that measures the voltage and how much flows in and out, which is why it sometimes jumps.

Who acts: percentage, small chip, much, estimate · What happens: be, make, measure, flow, jump · To what, where: estimate, voltage

This is a sentence of the lesson «Batteries» of the technology 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 (percentage, small chip, much, estimate), 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): no change. 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.
