Description

UD Ancient Greek PTNK contains portions of the Septuagint according to the Codex Alexandrinus.

This treebank was produced using text extracted from https://greekdoc.github.io with initial syntactic relations produced by word-aligning and projecting the relations from the parallel Ancient Hebrew treebank.

abstract = "In this paper we present the initial construction of a treebank of Ancient Greek containing portions of the Septuagint, a translation of the Hebrew Scriptures (1576 sentences, 39K tokens, roughly 7{\%} of the total corpus). We construct the treebank by word-aligning and projecting from the parallel text in Ancient Hebrew before automatically correcting systematic syntactic mismatches and manually correcting other errors.",
