  We introduce a novel method for multilingual transfer that utilizes deep
contextual embeddings, pretrained in an unsupervised fashion. While contextual
embeddings have been shown to yield richer representations of meaning compared
to their static counterparts, aligning them poses a challenge due to their
dynamic nature. To this end, we construct context-independent variants of the
original monolingual spaces and utilize their mapping to derive an alignment
for the context-dependent spaces. This mapping readily supports processing of a
target language, improving transfer by context-aware embeddings. Our
experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach for
zero-shot and few-shot learning of dependency parsing. Specifically, our method
consistently outperforms the previous state-of-the-art on 6 tested languages,
yielding an improvement of 6.8 LAS points on average.
