Part of speech (POS)

Part of speech [Manning, Shuetze, 1999]

Words of a language are grouped into classes which show similar syntactic behavior. These word classes are called parts of speech (POS). Three important parts of speech are noun, verb, and adjective. The major types of morphological process are in ection, derivation, and compounding.

There are around 9 POS according to different schools:

  • Nouns (NN, NP), pronouns (PN, PRP), adjectives (JJ): number, gender, case
  • Adjective (JJ): comparative, superlative, short form
  • Verbs (VB): subject number, subject person, tense, aspect, modality, participles, voice
  • Adverbs (RB), prepositions (IN), conjunctions (, CS), articles (AT)

and particles (RP): nothing
