> **Abstract:** In this paper, we explore the impact of augmenting pre-trained Encoder-Decoder models, specifically T5, with linguistic knowledge for the prediction of a target task. In particular, we investigate whether fine-tuning a T5 model on an intermediate task that predicts structural linguistic properties of sentences modifies its performance in the target task of predicting sentence-level complexity. Our study encompasses diverse experiments conducted on Italian and English datasets, employing both monolingual and multilingual T5 models at various sizes. Results obtained for both languages and in cross-lingual configurations show that linguistically motivated intermediate fine-tuning has generally a positive impact on target task performance, especially when applied to smaller models and in scenarios with limited data availability.

## Model Description

The model is based on a T5 model fine-tuned in a multitask fashion to solve a set of raw, morpho-syntactic and syntactic tasks (i.e. predictions of linguistic properties). 
The full list of the 10 linguistic properties used as intermediate tasks can be found in the original paper.

This model is based on the Italian version of t5-large, [it5-large](https://huggingface.co/gsarti/it5-large).
