Abstract
Recently, the language-specific morphosyntactic annotation of InterCorp, a large multilingual parallel corpus, has been replaced by the language-uniform morphosyntactic and syntactic annotation following the guidelines of the Universal Dependencies project. Because the corpus is used predominantly by human users via a token-based concordancer, the CONLL-U format produced by the UDPipe parser has been extended by attributes such as lemma of the token's syntactic head or morphosyntactic categories of the content verb's auxiliary.
We conclude that despite some theoretical and practical issues, the new annotation is a promising solution to the issue of mutually incompatible tagsets within a single corpus.
