Genesis 37:30 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: Joseph, I · What happens: return, say, go · Speech: someone speaks in this verse

This is Genesis 37:30 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — Joseph, I — and what happens in the verse, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

וַיָּ֥שָׁב אֶל־אֶחָ֖יו וַיֹּאמַ֑ר הַיֶּ֣לֶד אֵינֶ֔נּוּ וַאֲנִ֖י אָ֥נָה אֲנִי־בָֽא׃

And he returned unto his brethren, and said: 'The child is not; and as for me, whither shall I go?'

The tree

Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss.

Pragmatics

form: statement
act: assert
voice: character
speech: a frame and its quote
negation: yes
the frame alone: decl · narrate · none

verb	form · stem	who (A0)
יָּשָׁב he returned	wayyiqtol · qal
יֹּאמַר he said	wayyiqtol · qal
בָֽא going	participle active · qal	אֲנִי־ [am] I

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

Targum Onkelos

וְתָב לְוַת אֲחוֹהִי וַאֲמַר עוּלֵימָא לֵיתוֹהִי וַאֲנָא לְאָן אֲנָא אָתֵי

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
