The Orange Fairy Book, Opening, part 9, sentence 2
Of course, when you see it by itself it is all right, though it is different, somehow, from the others.
Who acts: you, course · What happens: see, be · To what, where: course
This is a sentence of «The Orange Fairy Book» by Andrew Lang, Opening, part 9. The page gives its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies — and its pragmatics clause by clause: who acts (you, course), 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.
