We present the first open-source tool for annotating morphosyntactic tense, mood and voice for English, French and German verbal complexes.The annotation is based on a set of language-specific rules, which are applied on dependency trees and leverage information about lemmas, morphological properties and POS-tags of the verbs.Our tool has an average accuracy of about 76%.The tense, mood and voice features are useful both as features in computational modeling and for corpuslinguistic research.
