## Description
This dataset contains parallel English and French texts from the Europarl corpus (Koehn, 2005).

The files provide alignments of EN and FR verbs along with information on their position, tense and voice and can therefore be used in translational studies for these languages and/or the training of translation systems that can make use of the labels in this resource.

Although the resource was created semi-automatically, the verb alignment and inferred tenses are of high precision, especially in the second file contained in the package:

Tense-Annotation-full.txt : complete alignment.

Tense-Annotation-gold.txt : alignments only for cases where there is an EN /and/ an FR tense that was inferred from the verbs.


The format in the two files is the following:

EN sentence  
FR sentence  
Position_in_EN    \tab    EN_verb1    \tab    EN_tense    \tab    EN_voice    \tab    FR_verb    \tab    FR_tense    \tab    FR_voice  
Position_in_EN    \tab    EN_verb2    \tab    EN_tense    \tab    EN_voice    \tab    FR_verb    \tab    FR_tense    \tab    FR_voice 

EN sentence  
FR sentence  
Position_in_EN    \tab    EN_verb1    \tab    EN_tense    \tab    EN_voice    \tab    FR_verb    \tab    FR_tense    \tab    FR_voice  

...


The following is an explanation on the labels used:

EN_tense:  

past_perf_cont = Past Perfect Continuous  

past_perf = Past Perfect  
past_cont = Simple Past Continuous  

sim_past = Simple Past  
pres_perf = Present Perfect  

pres_perf_cont = Present Perfect Continuous  

pres_perf = Present Perfect  
pres_cont = Present Continuous  

pres = Present  

fut_perf_cont = Future Perfect Continuous  

fut_perf = Future Perfect  
fut_cont = Future Continuous  

fut = Future  

cond_perf_cont = conditional verb group with in continuous past tense  

cond_perf = conditional verb group in past tense  
cond_cont = conditional verb group in continuous present tense  

cond = conditional verb group in present tense  

infinitif = base verb form  

no_tag = tense not found  

EN_voice:  

active, passive, unknown  



FR_tense:  
pres = présent  
passe_comp = passé composé  

imparfait = imparfait  

plus_que_parf = plus-que-parfait  

passe_sim = passé simple  
passe_rec = passé récent  

passe_ant = passé antérieur  
imperatif = impératif  
subjonctif = subjonctif  
conditionnel = conditionnel  
futur_proche = futur proche  

futur = futur  

futur_ant = futur antérieur  
no_tag = tense not found  



FR_voice:  
active, passive, unknown  

@ = unaligned words
