Summary

The present release includes the Classical Armenian translation of the Gospels and the first book of the "History of the Armenians" by Movses Khorenatsi. The annotation of the Gospels results from a rule-based conversion from the PROIEL annotation, manually corrected and extended with additional information. The annotation of the "History of the Armenians" has been performed by a UDPipe2 annotator and manually corrected.

Introduction

The present release includes a treebank of the Classical Armenian Gospels and the first ten chapters of the "History of the Armenians" by Movses Khorenatsi. The treebank results from a rule-based conversion of the <a href="https://github.com/proiel/proiel-treebank" target="_blank">PROIEL annotation</a> (see Dag T. T. Haug and Marius L. Jøhndal. 2008. 'Creating a Parallel Treebank of the Old Indo-European Bible Translations', in: Caroline Sporleder and Kiril Ribarov (eds.), Proceedings of the Second Workshop on Language Technology for Cultural Heritage Data (LaTeCH 2008) (2008), pp. 27-34). The PROIEL annotation is based on a digitalized version of Beda O. Künzle "Das altarmenische Evangelium" (Bern/Frankfurt am Main/New York: Peter Lang, 1984); titus.fkidg1.uni-frankfurt.de/texte/etcc/arm/armntbk/armnt.htm. The conversion from the PROIEL to UD annotation has been performed using a rule-based convertor (Petr Kocharov, Lilit Kharatyan). The conversion result has been manually corrected (Petr Kocharov) and extended with additional morphological features and relation subtypes, spelling in the Armenian alphabet, English glosses and sentence translations. The treebank of the "History of the Armenians" is based on the digital edition of the <a href="https://historians.armeniancathedral.org/index.htm" target="_blank">Arak29 Project</a>. The editions of Arak29 are adapted from the American University of Armenia’s Digital Library and other published sources. The morphological annotation of Arak29 has been automatically converted to UD with a rule-based convertor (Petr Kocharov, Lilit Kharatyan); the syntactic annotation is performed by a <a href="https://github.com/caval-repository/xcl_nlp/tree/main/parsers/UDPipe" target="_blank">UDPipe2 model</a> (<a href="https://github.com/caval-repository/xcl_nlp/blob/main/Kharatyan_Kocharov_2024_xcl_parsers.pdf" target="_blank">Kharatyan & Kocharov 2024</a>). All annotation has been manually corrected (Petr Kocharov).
