Evaluation
Add an "Evaluation" section, and make a grid that includes the UAS and LAS scores from your four parsing attempts above, as well as the number of forms (and sentences) in each corpus.

Dependency Relations
Below is an overview of 5 dependency relations that each occur more than twice in my annotation.
A description of the relation, noting various ways it might be used in the language, Two examples of the relation from your corpus, preferably illustrating what you described.
Add a "Dependency relations" section, and make a subsection for each of five dependency relations that you used at least twice in your annotation. For each relation, provide:
aux
Tongan does not conjugate verb forms based on tense, aspect, mood, etc. Instead it uses tense markers that indicate whether the verb is imperative, or past, present, future tense. Since Tongan is a VSO language, and tense markers precede all verbs, it is usually the first word in a sentence. I have chosen to analyze these tense markers in my transducer as auxiliary verbs. Therefore, the verb depends on the auxiliary tense marker, and we use the relationship aux
. Below are a few example where this aux
dependency relation appears.
