## Annotation layers

| Layer | Origin |
| --- | --- |
| Lemmas | manual native |
| UPOS | manual native |
| XPOS | not available |
| Features | manual native |
| 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 | 64 | 1 180 | 1 180 | 0 | 0 |
| **total** | 64 | 1 180 | 1 180 | 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 UD Pashto-Prince treebank contains manually annotated Pashto sentences from two textual sources: 50 sentences from Le Petit Prince, which was then translated and adapted into Northern Pashto, and 14 sentences from a Pashto prose text on Pashtun leadership. All sentences are annotated natively according to Universal Dependencies guidelines.

## Introduction

> The Pashto-Prince treebank is a manually annotated Universal Dependencies (UD) treebank for Pashto. It consists of a total of 64 sentences drawn from two sources:
> 
> 50 sentences from Le Petit Prince, originally sourced from an online Pashto version. The original text reflects Afghan (Southern) Pashto; therefore, the sentences were manually rewritten and adapted into Northern Pashto to reflect dialectal differences in morphology, lexicon, and syntax before annotation.
> 
> 14 sentences from a Pashto prose text titled Silent Pashtun Leadership, sourced from an online PDF publication.
> 
> All sentences were manually annotated for lemmas, universal part-of-speech tags (UPOS), morphological features, and dependency relations following the Universal Dependencies v2 guidelines. The annotations were performed directly in Pashto without automatic pre-annotation.
