Batteries, sentence 5

Batteries store a lot of energy in a small space, so they have strong rules: never open, burn or crush one, never mix old and new, keep chargers off beds, and take old ones to the battery bin, never the normal bin.

Who acts: Batteries, engine · What happens: store, have, not open, burn, crush, not mix · To what, where: lot, small space, strong rules, one, old, chargers

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 (Batteries, engine), 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): R3-conj-first ×1, R5-strong ×1, R6-punct-agree ×1, R7-rel-agree ×1. 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.
