# Intro to syntax and parsing
|
|
|
|
POS (Parts Of Speech) are lexical categories which we attach to words, equivalent to gramatical classes.
|
|
|
|
## Constituency
|
|
|
|
Constituents have a common behaviour, in this case, the noun phrases can appear before verbs
|
|
|
|
## Context-free grammars
|
|
|
|
The constituents can be formalized.
|
|
These are production rules and are composed of **non-terminals** (noun, phrase, det, etc.) and **terminal** symbols (words or symbols in the language)
|
|
|
|
*Symbol* -> *non-terminals* and/or *terminals*
|
|
|
|
The rules are used for generation or assigning structure.
|
|
Constituents form higher-level constituents.
