A richly annotated and genre-diversified language resource, The Prague Dependency Treebank – Consolidated 1.0 (PDT-C 1.0, or PDT-C in short in the sequel) is a consolidated release of the existing PDT-corpora of Czech data, uniformly annotated using the standard PDT scheme. PDT-corpora included in PDT-C: Prague Dependency Treebank (the original PDT contents, written newspaper and journal texts from three genres); Czech part of Prague Czech-English Dependency Treebank (translated financial texts, from English), Prague Dependency Treebank of Spoken Czech (spoken data, including audio and transcripts and multiple speech reconstruction annotation); PDT-Faust (user-generated texts). The difference from the separately published original treebanks can be briefly described as follows: it is published in one package, to allow easier data handling for all the datasets; the data is enhanced with a manual linguistic annotation at the morphological layer and new version of morphological dictionary is enclosed; a common valency lexicon for all four original parts is enclosed. Documentation provides two browsing and editing desktop tools (TrEd and MEd) and the corpus is also available online for searching using PML-TQ.
The Prague Dependency Treebank 2.5 annotates the same texts as the PDT 2.0. The annotation on the original four layers was fixed or improved in various aspects (see Documentation). Moreover, new information was added to the data:

PDT 3.0 is a new version of Prague Dependency Treebank. It contains a large amount of Czech texts with complex and interlinked morphological (2 million words), syntactic (1.5 MW) and semantic annotation (0.8 MW); in addition, certain properties of sentence information structure, multiword expressions, coreference, bridging relations and discourse relations are annotated at the semantic level. and the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic: grants P406/12/0658 "Coreference, discourse relations and information structure in a contrastive perspective", P406/2010/0875 "Computational Linguistics: Explicit description of language and annotated data focused on Czech", 405/09/0729 "From the structure of a sentence to textual relationships", and GPP406/12/P175 (Selected derivational relations for automatic processing of Czech);

The Prague Dependency Treebank 3.5 is the 2018 edition of the core Prague Dependency Treebank (PDT). It contains all PDT annotation made at the Institute of Formal and Applied Linguistics under various projects between 1996 and 2018 on the original texts, i.e., all annotation from PDT 1.0, PDT 2.0, PDT 2.5, PDT 3.0, PDiT 1.0 and PDiT 2.0, plus corrections, new structure of basic documentation and new list of authors covering all previous editions. The Prague Dependency Treebank 3.5 (PDT 3.5) contains the same texts as the previous versions since 2.0; there are 49,431 annotated sentences (832,823 words) on all layers, from tectogrammatical annotation to syntax to morphology. There are additional annotated sentences for syntax and morphology; the totals for the lower layers of annotation are: 87,913 sentences with 1,502,976 words at the analytical layer (surface dependency syntax) and 115,844 sentences with 1,956,693 words at the morphological layer of annotation (these totals include the annotation with the higher layers annotated as well). Closely linked to the tectogrammatical layer is the annotation of sentence information structure, multiword expressions, coreference, bridging relations and discourse relations.
The Prague Dependency Treebank of Spoken Czech 2.0 (PDTSC 2.0) is a corpus of spoken language, consisting of 742,316 tokens and 73,835 sentences, representing 7,324 minutes (over 120 hours) of spontaneous dialogs. The dialogs have been recorded, transcribed and edited in several interlinked layers: audio recordings, automatic and manual transcripts and manually reconstructed text. These layers were part of the first version of the corpus (PDTSC 1.0). Version 2.0 is extended by an automatic dependency parser at the analytical and by the manual annotation of “deep” syntax at the tectogrammatical layer, which contains semantic roles and relations as well as annotation of coreference.
Annotation of discourse relations is a project related to the Prague Dependency Treebank 2.5. It represents a new manually annotated layer of language description, above the existing layers of the PDT, and it portrays linguistic phenomena from the perspective of discourse structure and coherence. and GACR P406/12/0658, GACR P406/2010/0875, GACR 405/09/0729, Ministry of Education ME10018, Ministry of Education LM2010013
PDiT 2.0 is a new version of the Prague Discourse Treebank. It contains a complex annotation of discourse phenomena enriched by the annotation of secondary connectives.
The Prague Discourse Treebank 3.0 (PDiT 3.0) is a new version of annotation of discourse relations marked by primary and secondary discourse connectives in the data of the Prague Dependency Treebank. With respect to the previous versions, PDiT 3.0 brings a largely revised annotation of discourse relations and offers the data also in the Penn Discourse Treebank 3.0 (PDTB 3.0) format and sense taxonomy.
Preamble 1.0 is a multilingual annotated corpus of the preamble of the EU REGULATION 2020/2092 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL. The corpus consists of four language versions of the preamble (Czech, English, French, Polish), each of them annotated with sentence subjects.
The data were annotated in the Brat tool (https://brat.nlplab.org/) and are distributed in the Brat native format, i.e. each annotated preamble is represented by the original plain text and a stand-off annotation file.
SiR 1.0 is a corpus of Czech articles published on iRozhlas, a news server of a Czech public radio (https://www.irozhlas.cz/). It is a collection of 1 718 articles (42 890 sentences, 614 995 words) with manually annotated attribution of citation phrases and sources. The sources are classified into several classes of named and unnamed sources.
The corpus consists of three parts, depending on the quality of the annotations:
(i) triple-annotated articles: 46 articles (933 sentences, 13 242 words) annotated independently by three annotators and subsequently curated by an arbiter,
(ii) double-annotated articles: 543 articles (12 347 sentences, 180 622 words) annotated independently by two annotators and automatically unified,
and (iii) single-annotated articles: 1 129 articles (29 610 sentences, 421 131 words) annotated each only by a single annotator.
The data were annotated in the Brat tool (https://brat.nlplab.org/) and are distributed in the Brat native format, i.e. each article is represented by the original plain text and a stand-off annotation file.
