# UD_Zaar-Autogramm

Treebank card from UD release 2.18: metadata and texts come from `UD_Zaar-Autogramm/README.md`; size is counted by streaming the `.conllu` files and checked against the release `stats.xml`. Generated by `tools/treebanks build`; do not edit by hand. Papers: [Papers: UD_Zaar-Autogramm](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/docs/treebanks/say/autogramm/papers/); seeds: `seeds/`; converter: `convert.md`.

## 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 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| train | 978 | 10 103 | 10 712 | 556 | 0 |
| test | 1 127 | 9 526 | 10 240 | 654 | 0 |
| **total** | 2 105 | 19 629 | 20 952 | 1 210 | 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 dev are absent from the release.

## Summary

> A Universal Dependencies corpus for Zaar (aka Sayanci), a member of the Chadic branch of the Afro-Asiatic phylum. The language is mainly spoken by about 200,000 speakers in the Bogoro and Tafawa Balewa local governments of Bauchi State, Nigeria.

## Introduction

> The treebank is an automatic conversion of the [SUD_Zaar-Autogramm](https://github.com/surfacesyntacticud/SUD_Zaar-Autogramm), which was extracted from Bernard Caron's corpus in Elan format ([corpafroas.huma-num.fr/Archives/corpus.php](https://corpafroas.huma-num.fr/Archives/corpus.php)).
> 
> Sentences are annotated with the following metadata:
> 
> - `sent_id` (which indicates the source file and the segmentation identifier in the source file)
> - `speaker_id` (which identifies the turn of speech)
> - `sound_url` (which enables playback of the audio recording)
> - `seṅt_timecode` (which enables playback of the sentence)
> - `text` (lexical tokenization)
> - `text_ortho` (original transcription of the audio recording)
> - `text_en` (English interpretation)
