[Lexicog] Re: part of speech in E-V

[Claire Bowern]

I had similar discussions when I was helping out with the Gooniyandi 
dictionary. Our solution was to include the part of speech, but not to 
abbreviate it (so, noun instead of n, adjective instead of adj, etc) and 
we put it at the end of the entry, rather than after the headword. That 
way the information was there for the people who wanted it, but those 
who weren't interested weren't distracted. It was trialled in a few 
workshops and it was quite popular.
