Tagset Design and Inflected Languages

Elworthy, David

Original · EN

An experiment designed to explore the relationship between tagging accuracy and the nature of the tagset is described, using corpora in English, French and Swedish. In particular, the question of internal versus external criteria for tagset design is considered, with the general conclusion that external (linguistic) criteria should be followed. Some problems associated with tagging unknown words in inflected languages are briefly considered.
