## Annotation layers

| Layer | Origin |
| --- | --- |
| Lemmas | converted from manual |
| UPOS | converted from manual |
| XPOS | manual native |
| Features | converted from manual |
| Relations | converted from manual |

UD scale: *manual native* — annotated by hand directly in UD; *converted from manual* — converted from manual annotation in another scheme; *converted with corrections* — converted and partly corrected by hand; *automatic with corrections* — automatic, with partial manual corrections; *automatic* — automatic; *not available* — the layer is absent.

## Size

| Split | Sentences | Tokens | Words | Multiword tokens | Empty nodes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| test | 57 | 453 | 453 | 0 | 0 |
| **total** | 57 | 453 | 453 | 0 | 0 |

Tokens are surface tokens (Spanish `vámonos` is one), words are syntactic words (`vamos` + `nos`); multiword tokens are those split into several words; empty nodes are the `N.M` nodes of the enhanced graph. Splits train, dev are absent from the release.

## Summary

> The Uppsala Assyrian Treebank is a small treebank for Modern Standard Assyrian. The corpus is collected and annotated manually. The data was randomly collected from different textbooks and a short translation of The Merchant of Venice.

## Introduction

> The Uppsala Assyrian Treebank (UAT) is a small treebank which consists of 57 sentences and 453 tokens. The data was randomly collected from different textbooks and a short translation of The Merchant of Venice. The treebank was manually built and annotated following the UD annotation guidlines. This treebank is the very first attempt to building a treebank for the Modern Standard Assyrian language, and since it is a very small treebank, we kept the data in one file as test data.
> 
> We look forward to increasing the size of the treebank and enriching its annotation in the future.
