Abstract
This paper reports an effort to annotate modality in Chinese news articles. We introduce the annotation scheme for the modality that employs a dependency structure, which is based on Meagan Vigus (2019) and “UMR Aspect, Modal Strength, and Polarity Annotation Guidelines”. We test the cross-linguistic adaptability of the schema we adopt, present the preliminary results of the first pass, and analyze the types of disagreement.
