(2)  Arabic Treebank: Part 3 v 1.0 is the third part of a corpus of  
1,000,000 words of Arabic Treebank, designed to support language  
research and development of language technology for Modern Standard  
Arabic.  This corpus includes 600 stories from the An Nahar News  
Agency. There are a total of 340,281 words (counting non-Arabic tokens  
such as numbers and punctuation) in the 600 files - one story per file.  
New features of annotation include complete vocalization (including  
case endings), lemma IDs, and more specific POS tags for verbs and  
particles.

  The corpus contains 293,035 Arabic-only word tokens (prior to the  
separation of clitics), of which 290,842 (99.25%) were provided with an  
acceptable morphological analysis and POS tag by the morphological  
parser, and 2,193 (0.75%) were items that the morphological parser  
failed to analyze correctly.  Arabic Treebank: Part 3 v 1.0 is  
distributed on 1 CD.
