POS – part of speech tagging (1)<br />
<br />
<br />
Perhaps starting with Aristotle in the West<br />
(384-322 BCE), there was the idea of having<br />
parts of speech<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It comes from Dionysius Thrax of Alexandria<br />
(c. 100 BCE), the idea that is still with us that<br />
there are 8 traditional parts of speech:<br />
– Thrax: noun, verb, article, adverb, preposition,<br />
conjunction, participle, pronoun<br />
– School grammar: noun, verb, adjective, adverb,<br />
preposition, conjunction, interjection, pronoun<br />
<br />
