-Although the official working language of the Rada is Ukrainian, some speeches during parliamentary proceedings between 2012 and 2023 were held in languages other than Ukrainian. All the speeches delivered by foreign guests were recorded in their translation into Ukrainian in the source texts. However, utterances by Ukrainian MPs and government officials that were produced in Russian were recorded in Russian. Total utterances in Russian comprise about 2% in the source texts, with most of them occurring before mid-2019, when the Law on Protecting the Functioning of the Ukrainian Language as the State Language came into effect.

However, utterances by Ukrainian MPs and government officials that were produced in Russian were recorded in Russian. With language identification done at the sentence level in the ParlaMint-UA 4.1 corpus, tokens in Ukrainian comprise 94% and tokens in Russian comprise 6% in the source texts. Instances of using Russian in the Verkhovna Rada occurred mostly before mid-2019, when the Law on Protecting the Functioning of the Ukrainian Language as the State Language came into effect.
 
-The political system in Ukraine is multi-party, with 349 political parties on record at the country's Single Registry as of 1 January 2020. Contemporary political parties in Ukraine tend not to have clear-cut ideologies and centre around civilizational and geostrategic orientations, individual politicians or business interests. Also, renaming and rebranding political parties ahead of elections is not unusual. Parties that break the 5% electoral threshold form factions in the parliament. MPs elected on party lists may be either members of the respective parties or be nominated by those parties without membership. Parliamentary groups may consist of MPs who left a parliamentary faction, members of different political parties or independent politicians. An MP may be a member of only one parliamentary faction or group at a time.

 ### Data source and acquisition
 
-The ParlaMint-UA corpus contains proceedings for the 7th, 8th and 9th terms of the Rada between 12 December 2012 and 24 February 2023. Archived records of all plenary sittings are available through the open data portal at the Rada site in HTM format (https://data.rada.gov.ua/open/data/plenary/page5/sp?int) under the CC BY 4.0 licence.

Metadata related to Cabinet members and guest speakers were gathered manually from the current sites of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and the Rada, archived copies of webpages from the sites of the Rada, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, and the President of Ukraine as well as various open data sources including NGOs’ websites, mass and social media, and Wikipedia.

 No correction of source texts was performed. Spaces were normalized. Sequences of dots were replaced with a single dot. Adjected notes were joined. Opening and closing parentheses were moved into notes if missing. Regular apostrophes were replaced with soft apostrophes, which are used in the Ukrainian language. No end-of-line hyphens were present in the source. Quotation marks have been left in the text and are not explicitly marked up. The texts were segmented into utterances (speeches) and segments (corresponding to paragraphs in the source transcription).
 
-Language identification was based on expected frequencies for Ukrainian- and Russian-specific characters in the corpus (6.23 %(і) + 0.84 %(ї) + 0.39 %(є) + 0.01 %(ґ) = 7.47 % for Ukrainian, and 2.36 %(ы) + 0.36 %(э) + 0.2% (ё) + 0.02 %(ъ) = 2.94% for Russian), corpus-specific frequency word lists in Ukrainian and Russian, and Perl package Lingua::Identify::Any. A limitation of 250 characters was used for making decisions on language identification of shorter utterances based on Ukrainian-specific words, with a limitation of 100 characters for Russian-specific words.
+Language identification was done at the sentence level using the https://github.com/pemistahl/lingua-py library. The following language identification procedure was used:
+1)	paragraphs were segmented into sentences with UDPipe1 and ukrainian-iu-ud-2.5-191206.udpipe model (language distinction was irrelevant at this stage, as it was assumed that overall sentence segmentation was the same in Ukrainian and Russian);
+2)	the language of sentences was identified;
+3)	adjected sentences were merged with the same language that was in the same paragraph to spans;
+4)	udpipe annotation was done with the respective span models ukrainian-iu-ud-2.12-230717 and russian-syntagrus-ud-2.12-230717;
+5)	paragraph language was set based on dominating token language (if equal, then Ukrainian).
 
 
 ### Corpus-specific metadata
 
 The extended affiliation role “acting” was used for government officials who were appointed to serve in the role of a minister or a deputy minister on an interim basis but not to hold a respective office. Patronymic names were included as a surname type. The category of regular speakers embraced not only MPs and members of the Cabinet of Ministers but also deputy ministers who may speak in the Rada on behalf of the ministries they represent.
 
-Also, metadata on all MPs from the 4th, 5th and 6th terms were stored, while they were available, with the intention to eventually include proceedings from the previous terms into the ParlaMint-UA corpus.
 
 ### Structure
 
 There are no additional TEI structural elements beyond what is described in the ParlaMint schema.
 
 ### Linguistic annotation
-POS tagging, lemmatization and dependency parsing were done with UDPipe 2 (http://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/udpipe/2) with ukrainian-iu-ud-2.10-220711 and russian-syntagrus-ud-2.10-220711 models.

 The Ukrainian NER model was trained and deployed as part of the NameTag service (http://lindat.mff.cuni.cz/services/nametag/), with https://github.com/lang-uk/ner-uk dataset (data folder) used for training. We would like to thank [Jana Strakova](https://ufal.mff.cuni.cz/jana-strakova) for training the Ukrainian NER tool.
