Abstract: This paper describes the first report on cross-lingual transfer for semantic dependency parsing. We present the insight that there are twodifferent kinds of cross-linguality, namely sur-face level and mantic level, and try to cap-ture both kinds of cross-linguality by combin-ing annotation projection and model transferof pre-trained language models. Our exper-iments showed that the performance of our graph-based semantic dependency parser almost achieved the approximated upper bound.
