This paper presents and discusses the linguistic phenomena encountered in the development of the ongoing first ever universal dependency treebank for Torwali the Language. Torwali belongs to the Kohistani sub-group of Dardic Indo-Aryan languages, and is considered an endangered (Moseley, 2010) and indigenous language, which makes it extremely low-resourced in terms of linguistic and computational resources. With the aim of including Torwali in Universal Dependencies (UD) (de Marneffe et al. 2021), we are annotating a diverse set of example sentences for POS tags, features and dependency relations.
