Designing a verb guesser for part of speech tagging in Northern Sotho

  • The aim of this article is to describe the design and implementation of a verb guesser that will enhance the results of statistical part of speech (POS) tagging of verbs in Northern Sotho. It will be illustrated that verb stems in Northern Sotho can successfully be recognised by examining their suffixes and combinations of suffixes. Two approaches to verbal derivation analysis will be utilised, namely morphological analysis and corpus querying of suffixes and combinations of suffixes.
