VERB: verb

Definition

VERB tag is used for words with one of Japanese verb inflection types.
Basically it corresponds to PoS tag verb / 動詞 in UniDic. A VERB consists of the stem and inflection parts as below:

Examples

The differences between VERB tag and UniDic’s verb / 動詞 tag are as follows:


Treebank Statistics (UD_Japanese)

There are 3209 VERB lemmas (14%), 4241 VERB types (17%) and 16236 VERB tokens (9%). Out of 14 observed tags, the rank of VERB is: 3 in number of lemmas, 3 in number of types and 5 in number of tokens.
