  • Abstract
    Nouns and verbs pose the major challenge in part-of-speech tagging exercises. In this paper we present a suffix based noun and verb classifier for Assamese, an inflectional, relatively free word order Indic language. We used a tiny dictionary of frequent words to increase the accuracy. We obtained F-score of around 85%.
