Developing the Egyptian-UJaen Treebank

Roberto Antonio Díaz Hernández, Marco Carlo Passarotti


Abstract
This paper presents preliminary results of the development of the Egyptian-UJaen treebank, the first dependency treebank created for pre-Coptic Egyptian in Universal Dependencies. It describes the current state of the treebank, explains the approach adopted for the morphosyntactic annotation and discusses some issues concerning the adoption of the CoNLL-U format for the annotation of Egyptian texts. This treebank will surely become a useful linguistic tool for understanding the synchronic and dia- chronic use of pre-Coptic Egyptian.
