Description

UD_Ruuli-RDT is a Universal Dependencies (UD) treebank for the Ruruuli-Lunyala (Ruuli) language. The annotation was converted from interlinear glossed text and manually annotated for syntactic relations. The treebank includes texts from various sources: conversations, oral folktales, biographic monologue, movie subtitles, grammar examples, and factual prose. The treebank contains approximately 6,000 tokens.

The UD_Ruuli-RDT treebank consists of texts recorded in Ruuli or translated into it by native speakers, and subsequently glossed and annotated. The included texts are:

All sentences were converted from interlinear glossed text into CoNLL-U format using a custom conversion script. The syntactic relations were subsequently manually annotated following the UD framework.

Sentences from written texts and conversations were shuffled to anonymize the data.
