This paper presents an enhanced version of the Romanian corpus previously annotated only for verbal multiword expressions. The new release extends the annotation to multiword expressions of other parts of speech, following version 2.0 of the PARSEME guidelines. The corpus has been expanded, its new part was automatically morpho-syntactically annotated based on the Universal Dependencies framework, followed by extensive semi-automatic annotation of multiword expressions across all morphological categories. The paper also reports quantitative data on the updated corpus and discusses the distribution and characteristics of Romanian multiword expressions. We also highlight language-specific annotation challenges and issues arising from the PARSEME 2.0 guidelines.

The Romanian journalistic corpus previously annotated with verbal multiword expressions (PARSEME-Ro) has been extended recently with other journalistic texts and annotated with multiword expressions of all parts of speech closely observing version 2.0 of the PARSEME guidelines. The corpus size has been increased by about 40%, it underwent automatic morpho-syntactic annotation following the Universal Dependencies principles, as well as extensive semi-automatic annotation of multiword expressions of all morphological types (nominal, adjectival, adverbial, determiner, pronominal, prepositional, conjunction, interjection, and verbal for the newly added texts). We present here our work methodology, which involves an automatic annotation phase, but the manual work prevails in checking the annotation and its consistency. We also offer quantitative data about the new version of the corpus, the types of multiword expressions existing in Romanian and occurring therein, and characteristics thereof. The new version of the PARSEME-Ro corpus contributes to the field of developing multiword expressions resources per se, i.e. describing this language phenomenon, as well as resources for training, tuning and testing the performance of tools and large language models when dealing with this linguistic phenomenon.The paper also discusses some remarks on the MWE paraphrasing subtask in which a part of the corpus was used. The corpus is released with a permissive license.

In this paper we present a new version of the Romanian journalistic treebank annotated with verbal multiword expressions of four types: idioms, light verb constructions, reflexive verbs and inherently adpositional verbs, the last type being recently added to the corpus. These types have been defined and characterized in a multilingual setting (the PARSEME guidelines for annotating verbal multiword expressions). We present the annotation methodologies and offer quantitative data about the expressions occurring in the corpus. We discuss the characteristics of these expressions, with special reference to the difficulties they raise for the automatic processing of Romanian text, as well as for human usage. Special attention is paid to the challenges in the annotation of the inherently adpositional verbs. The corpus is freely available in two formats (CUPT and RDF), as well as queryable using a SPARQL endpoint.

This paper reports on the Romanian journalistic corpus annotated with verbal multiword expressions following the PARSEME guidelines. The corpus is sentence split, tokenized, part-of-speech tagged, lemmatized, syntactically annotated and verbal multiword expressions are identified and classified. It offers insights into the frequency of such Romanian word combinations and allows for their characterization. We offer data about the types of verbal multiword expressions in the corpus and some of their characteristics, such as internal structure, diversity in the corpus, average length, productivity of the verbs. This is a language resource that is important per se, as well as for the task of automatic multiword expressions identification, which can be further used in other systems. It was already used as training and test material in the shared tasks for the automatic identification of verbal multiword expressions organized by PARSEME.
