## Annotation layers

| Features | converted from manual |
| Relations | manual native |

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 | 2 289 | 12 758 | 14 631 | 1 708 | 0 |
| **total** | 2 289 | 12 758 | 14 631 | 1 708 | 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

> UD_Chintang-CTNTB is a Universal Dependencies (UD) treebank for the Chintang language. The annotation converted from glosses from "A Grammar of Chintang A Tibeto-Burman Language of Nepal" by Robert Schikowski.

## Introduction

> The UD_Chintang-CTNTB treebank treebank contains **2k** sentences (a total of **15k** words) from the Kiranti language Chintang, spoken in eastern Nepal. All data are included in the training set.
> 
> The sentences originate from the examples in the (currently unpublished) *A Grammar of Chintang: A Tibeto-Burman Language of Nepal* by Robert Schikowski. Each example was converted from interlinear glossed text into CoNLL-U format using a custom conversion script. The syntactic relations were subsequently manually annotated according to the Universal Dependencies (UD) framework.
