| ## Introduction | |
| The RST Spanish Treebank is an on-line specialized text corpus for Spanish. It was annotated using the discourse relations from the Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST) by Mann and Thompson (1988). | |
| ### Segmentation | |
| * Each Elementary Discourse Unit (EDU) must include a finite verb, an infinitive or a gerund. Participles are not considered for segmentation. | |
| * Fragments found between brackets are only considered as EDUs if they contain a verb. | |
| * Completive clauses should not be segmented, whether they represent the subject, direct object, indirect object or circumstance of a main clause. | |
| ## DISRPT 2023 Shared Task Information | |
| Automatic parses were added using Stanza's pretrained Spanish Ancora model. The data contains discontinuous discourse units (originally connected via "same-unit" relations). | |
