Abstract This article provides an overview of recent literature and research on word classes, focusing in particular on typological approaches to word classification. The cross‐linguistic classification of word class systems (or parts‐of‐speech systems) presented in this article is based on statements found in grammatical descriptions

Studies in Language, 2012
Structuralists and generativists define word classes distributionally (Palmer 1971, Baker 2003, Aarts 2007), while cognitive linguists take a semantic (Langacker 1987a) or semantic-pragmatic approach (Croft 1991, 2001). Psycholinguistic research, by contrast, has shown that phonological properties also play a role (Kelly 1992, Monaghan et al.

Abstract The assignment of words into word classes is crucial to analyses of lexical conversion, and to grammatical analysis more generally. Word classes are theoretically based on morphosyntactic distribution, but in practice this does not yield a neat distinction between nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

Abstract All nouns have grammatical categories of gender (Chapter 5), number (Chapter 6), and case (Chapter 7). Syntactically, a noun can be both head and dependent in possessive constructions (Chapter 8), head and modifier in an NP, and head of predicate (see §4.3 and §4.4). Derivation and compounding are discussed in Chapter 9.

AbstractThis overview of (theoretical approaches to) English word classes is built around widely accepted criticisms of ‘traditionalist’ definitions of word classes, which have been characterized—mainly by structuralists, going back to Bloomfield (1933)—as purely notional and overly simplistic.
