     It should be noted that there is not always a perfect match between the logically possible systems displayed above and the PoS systems actually encountered in the sample languages. As the data in the next sub-section will show, languages may display an additional PoS class from a ‘neighboring’ system (i.e. the one represented above or below it), or they may display additional closed or derived classes of rigid lexemes.

     In a second step, each word is automatically attributed a certain part-of-speech category, such as noun, verb and alike, which is best illustrated by an example given in Fig. 4.1. […] A LCCRF can be used to predict a certain label sequence (the PoS tags) y* = {y₁, y₂,…,y_L} given a certain input word sequence w = {w₁, w₂,…,w_L} that maximizes the conditional probability p(y|w).

     The PoS tag of the word ‘live’ leads to drastic differences in its pronunciation (/liv/ when used as a verb and /lahyv/ when used as an adverb or adjective). The PoS tagger can be a simple rule-based system Brill (1992), a data-driven technique (Brants 2000) or a hybrid approach. There are also a few standard corpora that contain word-PoS pairs.

     In PoS tagging, the sentences in the data set collection are tokenized using the PoS tagger. During this process, a part of speech such as noun, verb, adverb, adjective, conjunctions, negations and the like are assigned to every word in the sentences.

     The good news is that language scholars have long studied PoS across the humanities, mainly by reading literature and producing helpful guidance and rules that convey the particular PoS class a word can take on.
