 =Overview=
-This final project is an extension of the last assignment on universal dependencies. I continue working on the language, FIjian, I chose at the beginning. For this project, I plan to annotate 232 sentences in a text drawn from the main grammar book ''A Grammar of Boumaa Fijian'' by R.M.W. Dixon. In this process, I also expect to enrich my morphological transduce as encountering more sentences and new words. Then after annotating the sentences, I will also train a parser and evaluate the accuracy of the parser on both the data used for training and other data. Through annotating a larger corpus, I hope to develop a more accurate parser than the one for my last assignment and also to explore more about the dependency syntax in Fijian.

Some words are said to be aspect markers, but their corresponding translations in English are like adverbs, such as 'continuously'. When developing my transducers, I added tags according their translations (i.e. I gave adv tag to some words claimed to be asp markers by the grammar book) but during the process of doing UD relations I realised that for future work, it might be necessary and important to better distinguish asp markers and true adverbs.

 A predicate usually requires a subject pronoun preceding the predicate head (but it can be omitted sometimes, e.g. when a cardinal pronoun is present following the predicate head), and subject NP and subject clause (with the same reference as the subject pronoun) always follow the predicate. When a subject NP or a subject clause is present in a clause, the subject pronoun gets<expl>, and the subject NP gets <nsubj> or the subject clause gets <csubj>. When neither is present but only the subject pronoun is present in the clause, the subject pronoun gets <nsubj> instead of <expl>.

 A predicate usually takes several adverbial modifiers in a clause, and the <advmod> does not have to be an adverb (e.g. deictic verbs can modify a predicate as well.)

		+
		+	=Evaluation=
		+	The current evaluation is on the transducer with 260 more stems added and a model trained by a <code>.conllu</code> file containing 90 annotated sentences from the text in the grammar book. The "other data" used in the test right now is the fij.annotated.ud.conllu annotated in the previous assignment.
		+	*Current coverage over a large corpus: 75.26%
		+	:-This rate is expected because though a lot more stems are added into the transducer, they are almost all in Boumaa Fijian, a dialect overlapping 80% with the Standard Fijian, which the large corpus (Bible New Testament) is in.
		+	* Accuracy for the trained UD-relations parser:
		+	{\| class="wikitable"
