<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm not sure of the accuracy of this tagger, but it
can be trained to work with any language. It's a java program, so can be
used on windows, UNIX, or Mac. The program is called QTag, and can be
found at the following link.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Dear all,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>does anybody know of an automatic, plus-99 per cent accuracy
(utopia?), unidiosyncratic, easy-to-apply POS tagger that can handle German,
English (French, Spanish) and works in an ordinary Windows environment?</DIV>
<DIV>ANY ideas are greatly appreciated!</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>All the best</DIV>
<DIV>Nicole.</DIV>
