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.

## Summary

> A treebank of Scottish Gaelic based on the [Annotated Reference Corpus Of Scottish Gaelic (ARCOSG)](https://github.com/Gaelic-Algorithmic-Research-Group/ARCOSG).

## Introduction

> The Scottish Gaelic treebank takes data from ARCOSG, the Annotated Reference Corpus of Scottish Gaelic (Lamb *et al.* 2016) with the annotation scheme based on that in the Irish UD treebank. Full bibliographic details are to be had there.
> 
> It contains eight subcorpora of a varying number of original files, each of approximately 1000 tokens. All files listed below are in the training set unless they are explicitly marked as being in test or dev. In the ARCOSG documentation the names of contributors are largely given in Gaelic, which I have kept and glossed with their names in English where they will be familiar to non-Gaelic speakers.
> 
> - Conversation. c01 is in test, c03 in dev and the rest in train. These are transcripts of interviews in the Western Isles from 1998 to 2000. In c03 and c04 speakers 2, 4 and 5 are children.
