Evaporation and condensation, sentence 0

Water does not need to boil to become a gas: at any temperature some particles at the surface move fast enough to escape into the air.

Who acts: Water, particles · What happens: not need, boil, become, move, escape · To what, where: gas, temperature, air

This is a sentence of the lesson «Evaporation and condensation» of the world 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 (Water, particles), 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): R5-strong ×1, R8-pos-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.
