Summary

UD_Faroese-FarPaHC is a conversion of the Faroese Parsed Historical Corpus (FarPaHC) to the Universal Dependencies scheme.

The conversion was done using UDConverter.

Introduction

The Faroese Parsed Historical Corpus (FarPaHC) is a 53,000 word corpus which includes three texts from the 19th and 20th centuries. These texts were originally manually parsed according to the Penn Parsed Corpora of Historical English (PPCHE) annotation scheme. Two of these parsed texts have been automatically converted to the Universal Dependencies scheme to create the 40,000 word UD_Faroese-FarPaHC.
