The image displays a linguistic diagram labeled "(14) English cats" in the top left corner. The diagram consists of three tree-like structures arranged horizontally from left to right, with explanatory labels on the far right side indicating different levels of analysis.

On the far right, four rows of text serve as keys for the diagrams:
- The top label "sylls" (short for syllables) points to the highest level of nodes in the trees.
- The second label "skeleton" points to the middle tier of nodes labeled with a simple 'x'.
- The third label "melody" points to the underlined feature strings located below the skeleton nodes.
- The bottom label "phonetic" points to the final phonetic symbols at the very base of the trees.

The first tree on the left has a top node labeled with an x-bar symbol and a superscript 3 (written as `\overline{x}^3`). It branches down into two nodes labeled 'x'. Below these, the left branch leads to underlined text "F,H" which corresponds to the phonetic symbol "k". The right branch leads to underlined text "F" with a macron over it, corresponding to the phonetic symbol "æ".

The middle tree has a top node labeled `\overline{x}^4(7)`. It branches down into two nodes labeled 'x'. Below these, the left branch leads to underlined text "F,R(H)" which corresponds to the phonetic symbol "t". There is a dashed line extending from the rightmost lower 'x' of this tree towards the next tree.

The third tree on the right has a top node labeled `\overline{x}^5(2)`. It branches down into two nodes labeled 'x'. Below these, the left branch leads to underlined text "F,FRH/H,R(H)" which corresponds to the phonetic symbol "s". The dashed line from the middle tree connects to this leftmost lower node of the right tree.

There is a horizontal arrow pointing from the top node of the third tree (`\overline{x}^5(2)`) towards the top node of the middle tree (`\overline{x}^4(7)`). The text "magic C-gvt." is written above this arrow.
