Research direction

Start by locating where python-zpar is used and determine whether constituency parsing is required; the issue does not name files or tests. Compare a constituency-parser alternative such as AllenNLP with the suggested spaCy or Stanford Stanza dependency parsers, then confirm that the replacement supports the parser's needs.

Description

enhancement

python-zpar is no longer being actively maintained so we should try and find an alternative dependency, e.g. https://demo.allennlp.org/constituency-parsing

Or if constituencies are not actually needed, the spacy dep parser or the stanford stanza dep parser might be good options.
