Summary
UD_Ukrainian-ParlaMint is a collection of Ukrainian parliamentary transcripts annotated in Universal Dependencies. The texts are published on the official website of the Ukrainian parliament (rada.gov.ua/documents/Stenbul pz) and are taken for UD_Ukrainian-ParlaMint from the Ukrainian section of the ParlaMint project (clarin.eu/parlamint).
Introduction
The corpus consists of Ukrainian parliamentary plenary session transcripts, with morphological and syntactic annotation checked manually. It contains transcripts of political meetings from 2003 to 2022 from the Ukrainian ParlaMint corpus (Kopp et al., 2023) and other open sources. For the corpus, we selected full transcripts of Verkhovna Rada plenary sessions for several days (2003-2022) and one transcript of the National Security and Defense Council meeting (2014). The transcripts provide a fairly accurate record of real speech, preserving elements of colloquial syntax, grammatical inconsistencies, lexical errors, and Ukrainian-Russian code switching. To have the most authentic material, we did not use texts from before 2003, where partial grammatical corrections were observed, nor texts from after 2023, which show signs of excessive normalization due to speech-to-text recognition programs (e.g., replacing vernacular words like щас with зараз, 'now'). We also removed text containing Ukrainian-Russian code switching and some sentences in Russian. The selected sessions are those related to important events in modern Ukrainian history, characterized by a larger share of spontaneous speech, while also including samples of routine parliamentary sessions during which regular laws were considered.
