# Dataset Card for Danish Dependency Treebank

<!-- START-SHORT DESCRIPTION -->
The Danish subsection of the [Universal Dependencies Treebank](https://github.com/UniversalDependencies/UD_Danish-DDT).
<!-- END-SHORT DESCRIPTION -->


The Danish UD treebank has been converted from the Danish Dependency Treebank (Buch-Kromman, 2003) into Universal Dependencies (UD). It consists of 5,512 sentences (100k words). The Danish source texts and the Danish part-of-speech tags were created by the PAROLE-DK project (Keson 1998) by the Danish Society for Language and Literature.

While the dataset was initially intended as a rich annotation, this corpora only uses the raw text.
