This paper presents joint research between a Spanish team and an American one on the development and exploitation of a Spanish treebank.Such treebanks for other languages have proven valuable for the development of high-quality parsers and for a wide variety of language studies.However, when the project started, at the end of 1997, there was no syntactically annotated corpus for Spanish.This paper describes the design of such a treebank and its initial application to parser construction.
