![]() This tradition dates back to the first millennium bce with scholars as famous as Pāṇini, whose Aṣṭādhyāyī can be considered the first comprehensive grammar of the Vedic language. Also, Vedic is at the root of a long and influential tradition of linguistic description and analysis. First, the Vedic corpus plays an important role in historical linguistics because of its extensive and early attestation. The creation of a treebank for an otherwise under-resourced language such as Vedic is highly welcome for various reason. Vedic Sanskrit (henceforth Vedic) is an ancient Indo-Aryan language, transmitted by a large corpus of poetry and prose texts. 2020) is a recent addition to this growing body of syntactically annotated corpora. The Vedic Treebank 5 ( vtb Hellwig et al. 2018a, b), the ittb 2 ( Passarotti 2019), the Ancient Greek and Latin Dependency Treebank 3 ( agldt 2.0 Bamman & Crane 2011) or, outside of the Indo-European domain, the treebank of Old Chinese 4 ( Yasuoka 2019), and with the potential that annotated corpora have for the study of ancient languages ( Eckhoff et al. Our paper follows in the wake of other contributions concerned with the process of building linguistic resources for ancient languages, such as the proiel treebanks 1 of early Indo-European languages ( Eckhoff et al. the Penn treebank), an increasing number of treebanks of ancient languages has been published in recent years. ![]() ![]() While earlier endeavors in annotating syntactic structure were largely confined to modern languages (e.g. Over the past decades, treebanks have become indispensable tools for studying syntactic and morphological phenomena and for enhancing Natural Language Processing ( nlp). ![]()
