Examples


Treebank Statistics (UD_French)

There are 85 ADP lemmas (0%), 98 ADP types (0%) and 64437 ADP tokens (16%). Out of 17 observed tags, the rank of ADP is: 8 in number of lemmas, 10 in number of types and 2 in number of tokens.

The 10 most frequent ADP lemmas: de, à, en, dans, pour, par, sur, avec, comme, entre

The 10 most frequent ADP types: de, à, en, d’, dans, pour, par, sur, avec, comme

Morphology

The form / lemma ratio of ADP is 1.152941 (the average of all parts of speech is 1.307036).

The 1st highest number of forms (5) was observed with the lemma “de”: d, d’, de, des, dr.

The 2nd highest number of forms (3) was observed with the lemma “que”: qu’, que, que’.

The 3rd highest number of forms (3) was observed with the lemma “à”: a, à, á.

ADP does not occur with any features.
