`solo` vs `sólo` - annotated consistently and/or remove accent?

[AngledLuffa]

According to Claude - perhaps not correctly -

the Ortografía de la lengua española (RAE/ASALE, 2010) states in section 3.4.1 that the accent on sólo (adverb) is no longer required since it is rarely ambiguous in context

Regardless, there are cases of ADV with no accent, and non-ADV with accent. Whether we settle on a single lemma or two, it should at least be consistent within the POS tags.

Normalized in dev.

[AngledLuffa]

There are a still a few solo_ADV in GSD:

(base) [john@localhost UD_Spanish-GSD]$ grep -n "       solo    ADV" *
es_gsd-ud-train.conllu:83377:4  solo    solo    ADV     _       _       5       advmod  _       _
es_gsd-ud-train.conllu:128257:21        sola    solo    ADV     _       _       20      advmod  _       _
es_gsd-ud-train.conllu:204231:16        solo    solo    ADV     _       _       14      advmod  _       SpaceAfter=No
es_gsd-ud-train.conllu:338606:11        solo    solo    ADV     _       _       9       advmod  _       SpaceAfter=No
es_gsd-ud-train.conllu:349183:38        solo    solo    ADV     _       _       46      advmod  _       SpaceAfter=No

Looking through them, they all look like genuine ADV usages, so just relemmatize them all to sólo ?

[dan-zeman]

OK, I only looked at AnCora this time. I went with LEMMA=sólo because that was what vast majority of s[oó]lo adverbs uses there. Hence I suppose we want the other treebanks to follow suit.

[AngledLuffa]

Here's a question, though - can solo inflect for gender? I don't think it does when it's an ADV. So what does that mean for a sentence like this... should sola still be ADV, or is this an ADJ usage?

Adverbs do not inflect for gender. This occurrence is ADJ. And IMO it is an optional depictive, hence its deprel should be changed to advcl.

[AngledLuffa]

I'm glad we agree. Does that mean we should go through the other solo looking for similar occurrences, though?

[dan-zeman]

If you feel like doing it, it won't hurt. You could come across other occurrences where it should be ADJ rather than ADV, even if it ends in -o.
