Person: person
The Person feature for Basque follows the standard UD guidelines for nouns, adjectives,
determiners and adverbs. However, finite verbs contain agreement features on person for the
subject, object and indirect object, so the Basque treebank follows the UD description for
layered features, defining
Person[erg]=1,2,3,
Person[abs]=1,2,3, and
Person[dat]=1,2,3.
