The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 6, sentence 80

'Well, I suppose you must have your joke,' answered the fox lightly, but never removing her eye from the wolf, who replied with a snarl which showed all his teeth:

Who acts: I, you, wolf, snarl, your · What happens: suppose, have, answer, not remove, reply, show · To what, where: joke, fox, eye, wolf, teeth · Speech: someone speaks here

This is a sentence of «The Orange Fairy Book» by Andrew Lang, Opening, part 6. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (I, you, wolf, snarl), what happens, when and where, as Mova's frames read it from the tree.

Parsed by Mova, not checked by a teacher. This tree is Mova's own parse (the en model, on the CPU, when the site is built); it may be wrong.
