Proceedings of the Joint Workshop on Multiword Expressions and Universal Dependencies (MWE-UD) @ LREC-COLING 2024
We present the first treebank of the Saraiki/Siraiki [ISO 639-3 skr] language, using the Universal Dependency annotation scheme (de Marneffe et al., 2021). The treebank currently comprises 587 annotated sentences and 7597 tokens. We explain the most relevant syntactic and morphological features of Saraiki, along with the decision we have made for a range of language specific constructions, namely compounds, verbal structures including light verb and serial verb constructions, and relative clauses.
