-Moby (tm) Part-of-Speech II for MSDOS operating systems is compressed
-and distributed on one HD double sided diskette. After decompression
-the vocabulary file included with this product is in ordinary ASCII
-format with CRLF (ASCII 13/10) delimiters.
-
-This second edition is a particularly thorough revision of the original
-Moby Part-of-Speech. Beyond the fifteen thousand new entries,
-many thousand more entries have been scrutinized for correctness
-and modernity. This is unquestionably the largest P-O-S list in the
-world. Note that the many included phrases means that parsing
-algorithms can now tokenize in units larger than a single word,
-increasing both speed *and* accuracy.
-
-
-Database Legend:
-
-
-Each part-of-speech vocabulary entry consists of a word or phrase
-field followed by a field delimiter of (ASCII 215) and the
-part-of-speech field that is coded using the following ASCII symbols
-(case is significant):
-
-
-
-Noun N
-
-Plural p
-
-Noun Phrase h
-
-Verb (usu participle) V
-
-Verb (transitive) t
-
-Verb (intransitive) i
-
-Adjective A
-
-Adverb v
-
-Conjunction C
-
-Preposition P

-Interjection !

-This two-part vocabulary record is delimited from others with CRLF
-(ASCII 13/10). For example, engineer Nt means that the word engineer
-has two main uses in English; the principal part-of-speech is as a noun
-"That engineer could write in microcode with one hand and in ADA
-with the other" and its secondary part-of-speech is as a transitive verb:
-"We sure engineered that software to death."
-
-In many cases, the -ed, -ing,
--ly, and -ic forms of words are not explicitly listed; the participle forms
-of verbs will be usually marked simply with the V sign rather than the
-more specific t or i symbols. Words such as "be," which often have
-more than one head entry in a dictionary, have one listing with all the
-parts-of-speech for all senses concatenated. Foreign words commonly
-used in English usually include their diacritical marks, for example, the
-acute accent e is denoted by ASCII 142.
