So a word could be tagged with **SFSNP**, meaning its **substantive, feminine, singular, nominativ, proper noun**. I am not well versed in NLP/comp.ling., but I've been reading a bit on the Universal Dependencies website, and it looks like you need POS tags and \"features\". The POS tags seem much coarser than the above tag set, so I'm assuming some of the tags contain features.\r\n\r\nIf someone could comment on this, that would be really great. I want to know how good I can expect the corpus to be before starting on formatting it in the desired way. If the particular tag set I have linked is standard for some corpora, and there are tools to convert them to other formats, such information would be super helpful as well.\r\n\r\nAlso if there are suggestions of features that should be added to the corpus, that would appreciated as well. There has been some discussion on improving the current corpora we have, so knowing what to improve would be really helpful.\r\n\r\nAll of this was sparked by the Google SyntaxNet parser, and the possibility of getting a parser in our language is highly desirable. But it's just as important for us to standardize our NLP resources so that our language can easily tag along cutting edge NLP applications.\r\n\r\nI'm attaching the tagset pdf, but if it's bad practice to trust pdf files, I did link an Imgur screenshot earlier.\r\n[tagset.pdf](https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/docs/files/459635/tagset.pdf)\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/UniversalDependencies/docs/issues/comments/245969158","html_url":"https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/docs/issues/336#issuecomment-245969158","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/UniversalDependencies/docs/issues/336","id":245969158,"user":{"login":"ftyers","id":449545,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/449545?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers","html_url":"https://github.com/ftyers","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ftyers/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-09-09T16:42:25Z","updated_at":"2016-09-09T16:42:25Z","body":"@Bjartensen ... the next step is to start analysing the sentences for dependency structure. You don't need to be a trained linguist, but if you've never done dependency analysis before you will likely need to do some reading and receive some help (and training). I'm more than happy to give you a brief introduction online if you have some means of chat-like communication.
