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.

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

> The MarkIT resource contains around 800 sentences extracted from students' essays manually annotated with syntactic depencendies. The treebank covers seven types of marked constructions, plus some ambiguous sentences whose syntax can be wrongly classified as marked.

## Introduction

> MarkIT is a treebank of marked constructions in Italian, containing around 1,300 sentences with dependency annotation. First we automatically annotate the sentences using Tint, then a manual fix of the errors is performed on the whole dataset. The resource covers seven types of marked constructions plus some ambiguous sentences, whose syntax can be wrongly classified as marked.
