One such discussion revolves around auxiliary verbs. Some languages, for instance, have opted for tagging tense and passive voice auxiliaries as AUX; others include modal verbs under this tag, and still others add aspectual verbs to the set. While UD does not require languages to follow a single standard, it recommends that only strongly grammaticalized auxiliary verbs be annotated as such.

Drawing on Brazilian Portuguese, we contend that there are substantial gains to be obtained from (i) annotating auxiliaries as heads; (ii) annotating auxiliary interdependence in an auxiliation chain; and (iii) adopting a more consistent treatment of auxiliaries to encompass tense, aspect, modality and voice in auxiliation chains. We further propose auxiliary type as a feature to be annotated for the purpose of enriching information to be tapped from treebanks. Our proposal offers several benefits to NLP tasks, such as enhancing detection of subjects for information extraction by annotating inflected verbs as heads; temporal reference detection by relying on tense and aspect auxiliaries; and speculation detection by leveraging modal auxiliaries as cues for that task.", |

"text": "Our review begins with Tesni\u00e8re (1959) , an author who compared auxiliaries to free morphemes, though ascribed to them a distinctive nature of being inflectional. Auxiliary verbs, for Tesni\u00e8re, help other verbs enable a subcategory transfer (in his account, of tense and voice) and are totally devoid of semantic content. Auxiliaries are classified as compound verb forms, as opposed to simple forms, and operate with auxiliated ones. Tesni\u00e8re described auxiliary verbs as those assuming grammatical functions whereas auxiliated verbs contribute with the semantics. Being acquainted with English grammar (he mentions the verb do as an auxiliary), he admitted other functions of auxiliaries, which he suggested when he used etc. in: \"One distinguishes between auxiliaries of tense (past, future), auxiliaries of voice (passive), etc.\" (Tesni\u00e8re, 1959, p. 403) . Benveniste (1974) elaborated on Tesniere's description, recognizing verbal chains of auxiliaries of tense, modality and diathesis (voice). The author coined the term auxiliation to refer to a process that syntagmatically joins an auxiliating form to an auxiliated one, avoiding the use of the term auxiliary. For simplicity, we adopt the term auxiliary verb, even when referring to Benveniste's work.", |

"text": "By including modal verbs as a further type of auxiliation, Benveniste evidenced that auxiliation chains are longer and more complex than previously believed; yet he did not include aspectual verbs among auxiliaries. Another important contribution by Benveniste was to show that there is sequential order for auxiliary verbs to occur, namely, modal -temporal -passive voice -full verb, within a process he called over-auxiliation. Despite acknowledging that an auxiliary verb is the verb that takes person, number, mood, and tense inflections in a compound form and showing compound forms made up by up to three types of auxiliary functions (tense, modality, and passive voice diathesis), Benveniste did not expand on the fact that, in the case of longer chains, auxiliaries after the first one do not take inflections. Neither did he explicitly state that the second auxiliary in a chain is auxiliated by the first one and so on. He did state, however, that an auxiliary of passive voice diathesis is always the last one in a chain before a full verb, because no auxiliary verb can undergo passive voice diathesis.", |

"text": "Another relevant contribution to the concept of auxiliary verbs was made by studies of grammaticalization, mainly after the 1990s. Heine (1993) does a survey of the different ways languages express features of tense, modality and verbal aspect, pointing out that the lack of agreement around a concept of auxiliaries is largely due to the diversity of phenomena. For Heine, one of the sources for linguists' disagreement can be traced to Chomsky's AUX, a universal category he introduced in 1956, which is in fact not directly related to auxiliary verbs. Heine's review shows that auxiliary verbs have been at times considered as main verbs, as non-autonomous verbs, and still as a different grammatical category of verb altogether. Likewise, in dependency grammars, auxiliary verbs are usually considered as dependent by some authors while others posit them as heads. Steele (1994, p.818 ) praised Heine's work for his survey of views on auxiliary verbs, but criticized him for not tackling issues such as which verb is head and which one is dependent in dependency relations. Kuteva (2001) , who set out to complete the work of Heine, remarked that the big problem is the fact that some linguistic traditions disregard the dynamic character of the process of auxiliation, which prevents new auxiliaries arising in languages from being recognized. For her, auxiliation is an ongoing process and auxiliary verbs can be found at various stages in this process. There is thus no limited set of auxiliary verbs and one cannot separate auxiliary verbs from the verbs that gave rise to them.", |

"text": "Andersen (2006) agrees that auxiliation is a dynamic process, \"so the class is continually losing and acquiring new members\" (p.4). The author compares auxiliary constructions in over 800 languages and concludes: \"There is no, and probably cannot be, any specific, language independent formal criteria that can be used to determine the characterization of any given element as a lexical verb or an auxiliary verb.\" (p.5). He makes an important distinction between inflectional and semantic heads. The former encodes features responsible for making the construction to be grammatical, whereas the latter determines valence (argument structure). In some languages, the inflectional and the semantic heads are conflated, as the full verb is the one bearing inflections. In others, the inflectional head is the auxiliary and the semantic head is the full verb. Therefore, depending on the annotation purpose, dependence relations may prioritize the inflectional or the semantic head .", |

"text": "Prior to Benveniste, an auxiliary construction was seen as a set of verbs complementing each other: one of them expressing grammatical features and the other semantic ones. Benveniste posited over-auxiliation and included modal verbs in the auxiliation process. The chain of over-auxiliation, including aspectual verbs, conforms to the following sequence of occurrence: modal -temporalaspectual -passive voice -full verb (see Figure 1 ). Over-auxiliation is of key importance for corpus annotation, though it is still under-explored in accounts on the matter. Bearing in mind that each auxiliary verb imposes a non-finite form on the auxiliated verb, we can argue that, except for the first auxiliary, which holds inflections, all the other auxiliaries in a verbal chain are, concomitantly, auxiliated by a preceding verb and auxiliary to the following one, as shown in Figure 1 . This implicates that the traditional labor division ascribed to auxiliary verbs as representing grammatical functions and full verbs as representing semantic functions cannot be sustained. therefore, the verb auxiliated by devia is the verb ter. \u2022 ter [ter (have)], auxiliary of tense, requires the auxiliated to be a past participle form; the verb auxiliated by ter is the verb come\u00e7ar. ter is auxiliated by devia and is auxiliary to come\u00e7ar. \u2022 come\u00e7ado [come\u00e7ar (start)], auxiliary of aspect, requires the auxiliated to be an infinitive form and to be introduced by the preposition a; the verb auxiliated by come\u00e7ar is the verb ser. Therefore, come\u00e7ar is auxiliated by ter and is auxiliary to ser. \u2022 ser [ser (be)], auxiliary of passive voice, requires the auxiliated to be a past participle form. The verb auxiliated by ser is the verb implantar (past participle: implantado), which is the full verb in this sentence. Therefore, ser is auxiliated by come\u00e7ar and auxiliary to implantar. \u2022 implantado [implantar (implement)] is a full verb, auxiliated by ser.", |

"text": "A productive way to explore the concept of auxiliation is to focus on the concept of auxiliated verb rather than on the concept of auxiliary verb. An auxiliated verb may be an auxiliary or a full verb. An auxiliated verb is a verb that takes the non-finite form required by its auxiliary, is introduced by the preposition (if any) required by its auxiliary, and has the same subject as its auxiliary. Therefore, we may have an auxiliation chain whenever all verbs in a chain share the same subject. However, we cannot affirm that the verbs in a chain sharing the same subject are auxiliaries followed by a full verb, as it depends on which verbs will be considered auxiliary in each work and for what purpose. In auxiliation verbal chains, the first verb is only auxiliary and the last verb is only auxiliated (full verb), but the verbs in between are both auxiliary and auxiliated, which shows that these two categories are not mutually exclusive.", |

Among them, Pontes (1973) and Lobato (1975) are two particularly exhaustive accounts, each exploring likely criteria to classify a verb as an auxiliary one. Pontes (1973) takes a syntagmatic view on auxiliaries and discusses interdependence relations between auxiliary and auxiliated verbs. Lobato (1975) performs different probes to try to differentiate auxiliary from non-auxiliary verbs. More recently, Ilari & Basso (2014) systematize criteria to assign auxiliary status to a given verb, considering all instances found in corpora regardless of the degree of grammaticalization a verb is still exhibiting. When it comes to grammar textbooks, lists of auxiliary verbs can be found in most of them, no two lists being alike, which shows the variety of criteria and stances taken by grammarians in Brazil.", |

While they may be semantically weak, auxiliary verbs have a strong role in the syntax of the clause, its finite form agreeing with the subject and dictating the form of their auxiliated verbs. Auxiliary verbs can take part in a chain of several auxiliary verbs and be modified by adverbs, which sets them apart from fully-grammatical words.

"text": "Brazilian Portuguese has two modal verbs that are more highly grammaticalized than others: poder and dever. Both express several types of modality: permission, obligation and possibility. Poder has no homonymous full verb, but dever does [dever (to owe)]. There are several less grammaticalized modals like, e.g., tentar (to try). Some of them can be used as full verbs as is the case of saber (to know) and some of them, as is the case of pretender (to intend) and querer (to want or would like to), can also take a finite clause as a complement, its subject not being the same as the one of the main clause. However, whenever followed by an infinitive, those verbs share the same subject. These two possibilities are illustrated by examples (7) and (8). The particular behaviour of modal verbs mentioned above tends to exclude such verbs from traditional lists of modal verbs in Portuguese .

It also splits the verb chain into two xcomp relations. Annotation in Figure 4 is the least satisfactory of all, as it ignores the interdependence relationship between the verbs in a verbal chain and poses a problem regarding the distance between the verb holding inflections and the subject, assuming that the longer the distance is, the more difficult the task of subject detection becomes.", |

They concluded that the information the annotation brings to the process depends on the machine learning modeling choices, and, therefore, if properly modeled, the same properties may be automatically acquired. Given that machine learning seems to deal equally well with both forms of annotation, we believe that it is preferable to choose a learning model based on what is desired to be learned rather than to choose a form of annotation based on what the available models can learn.", |

Promoting the full verb to head is interesting to information extraction.

The trimming of auxiliary structures is an operation that seeks to \"prune the auxiliaries/modals as governors from the dependency graph and propagate the dependency relations of these nodes to the main verbs\" (Buiko et al 2009). For temporal expression, aspectual and modal verbs are fundamental cues, as explained by Pustejovsky et al (2017) in their design of the TimeML model, aimed to extract time information on events. Modal verbs are also relevant cues for speculation detection, as explored for different domains in Ozgur & Radev (2009) , Zhou et al.

"text": "One feature of aspectual verbs that poses a challenge to their annotation as auxiliaries in UD is the fact that most of them require a preposition to introduce the auxiliated verb. UD does not provide a specific dependence relation to link this preposition to one of the verbs (since the preposition neither marks case, nor introduces a subordinate clause). We have opted for annotating prepositions for verb and noun arguments as ADP.", |
