Create linguistic diagram (in TikZ?)

I want to create a dependency diagram such as the following:
dependency diagram



So far, I have done this using TikZ:



documentclassarticle
usepackagetikz
usepackagecalc

begindocument
defmytextThe man

newlengthbasewidth
setlengthbasewidthwidthofmytext

begintikzpicture[
firstnode/.style=
shape = rectangle,
inner sep = 2pt,
anchor=south west,

]
draw[thin] (0,0) -- (basewidth + 2ex,0);
draw[thin] (0,0) -- (0, 1.5em);
draw (0,0) node[firstnode,
minimum width = basewidth] mytext;
endtikzpicture
enddocument


Which gives me the following output:



my output



How may I complete the diagram (in repeatable, efficient way)?

  • Thanks! Yes, but those aren't the kind of diagrams I want. I need this other kind to help my students easily grasp the sentence syntax.

In this update, I added the second tree for illustration and packed all the definitions in a style that you can recycle, and which allows you to make changes globally. The relative vertical alignment is adapted from this nice answer.

  • That's great! But is there a way of reducing the vertical space of the nodes?

    – p.lugan
    Feb 25 at 2:44











  • @p.lugan Of course/ Just add s sep=0em after l sep=2.5em.

    – marmot
    Feb 25 at 2:45











  • Perfect. Just a side question: how can I manage to learn to do that by myself? The PGF/TikZ manual is simple overwhelming!

    – p.lugan
    Feb 25 at 2:48











  • @p.lugan For this you may want to look at the forest manual first. (I will add an update. The most important thing there, apart from forest, will be this post.)
