Part of speech - Word Tagger

The process of classifying words into their parts of speech and labeling them accordingly is known as part-of-speech tagging or POS-tagging, or simply tagging. Parts of speech are also known as word classes or lexical categories. The part of speech explains how a word is used in a sentence. There are eight main parts of speech -- nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions and interjections. The collection of tags used for a particular task is known as a Tagset.
