Seasons, terms and holidays, sentence 9

Holiday weeks cost more, because lots of families want to go at the same time: a trip that is £800 one week can be £1,200 in half-term, £400 more.

Who acts: Holiday weeks, lots · What happens: cost, want, go · To what, where: more

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): R5-strong ×1, R7-rel-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.
