Manually annotating a treebank is time consuming and laborintensive. We conduct delexicalized crosslingual dependency pars ing experiments, where we train the parser on one language and test on our target language. As our test case, we use Xibe, a severely underresourced Tungusic language. We as sume that choosing a closely related language as the source language will provide better re sults than more distant relatives. However, it is not clear how to determine those closely re lated languages. We investigate three differ ent methods: choosing the typologically clos est language, using LangRank, and choosing the most similar language based on perplexity.
