Questions, comments? General annotation questions (either Abkhaz-specific or cross-linguistic) can be raised in the main UD issue tracker. You can report bugs in this treebank in the treebank-specific issue tracker on Github. If you want to collaborate, please contact [paul • meurer (æt) uib • no]. Development of the treebank happens outside the UD repository. If there are bugs, either the original data source or the conversion procedure must be fixed. Do not submit pull requests against the UD repository.

Description

UD_Abkhaz-AbNC is a treebank based on texts from the Abkhaz National Corpus, AbNC.

UD_Abkhaz-AbNC is a treebank based on texts from the Abkhaz National Corpus, AbNC, which is a corpus of written texts from a variety of genres. The sentences are taken from a collection of fairy tales for children (Аҧсуа лакәқәа – Ахәыҷқәа рзы, editor: Мықәба, А.), a short story by Валентин Дбар, a novel by Шь. Аџьынџьал, and other literary texts.

The sentences are analysed using a finite state morphological analyser, and Constraint Grammar rules for disambiguation and dependency parsing. Both disambiguation and dependency analyses are corrected manually in a tool specifically developed for that purpose.

Compatibility with the AbNC

In the Abkhaz National Corpus, a proprietary annotation scheme for lemma forms and morpho-syntactic features is used. The AbNC annotations, from which the UD annotations are derived, are kept in the UD analyses: the original lemma form can be found in the MISC column as value of the LMSeg attribute; the morpho-syntactic features are available in the XPOS column.

Acknowledgments

The Abkhaz treebank and the tools used to create it have been developed by Paul Meurer.

I am grateful to Saida Adzhindzhal (Suchum) for helping me understand some of the constructions in the texts.
