Degree: degree of comparison
Latvian features degree for adjectives (ADJ), some participles (VERB with VerbForm=Part) and some adverbs (ADV). Ordinal numerals usually have first degree (pirmais “the first”), however in informal language ordinal numeral forms with higher degrees can be formed (pirmākais, vispirmākais). Such informal cases are not correctly represented in this treebank.
Valus used:
Pos(positive, first degree)Cmp(comparative, second degree)Sup(superlative, third degree)
Values not present in Latvian:
Equ(equative)Abs(absolute superlative)
