Parsing guide
Phrase highlighting shows how the ta'amim divide each verse. Disjunctive accents break the verse into smaller phrases; conjunctive accents join words within those phrases. Colours indicate the degree of separation.
- Emperor (1st degree) - the strongest break
- King (2nd degree)
- Duke (3rd degree)
- Count (4th degree)
A zigzag separator marks a paseq, which indicates a pause after a connecting accent. A munah followed by a paseq looks the same as a munah legarmeh, but the parsing distinguishes between them.
