From Lexical Functional Grammar to enhanced Universal Dependencies

The paper describes the conversion of an LFG treebank of Polish into enhanced Universal Dependencies, and—more generally—identifies the kinds of information lost in translation from LFG to UD. The paper also presents the resulting UD treebank of Polish and compares it to the previous UD treebank of Polish.
