Ukrainian Multiword Expressions Corpus: Creation, Annotation, and Linguistic Analysis

AbstractThis paper presents the development of a corpus of annotated multiword expressions (MWEs) for Ukrainian. The resource covers four major categories of MWEs: verbal, nominal, adjectival/adverbial, and functional. We describe the methodology used for data selection, the annotation scheme, and the procedures employed during annotation. In addition, the paper discusses some specific types of MWE constructions, illustrating their usage with numerous examples and addressing complex and borderline cases. The resulting corpus is an important resource for linguistic studies and NLP tasks involving MWEs, and is publicly accessible https://gitlab.com/parseme/sharedtask-data/-/tree/master/2.0?ref_type=heads.
