This isn't impossible, at least within a probabilistic sense, but it
doesnt neccessarily add a huge amount of value. Quote: "Time Flies
Like a Banana", syntatically parsable to two forms, semantically
ambiguous.
If you are just interested in part of speech, then you could use
wordnet to look up the non ambiguous forms. It's even debate-able as
to whether human's use a formal grammar even (we just make it up as
we go along, basically). Not that grammar's don't exist, just that we
aren't obliged to use them.

Hi,
I am trying to implement a feature that can parse sentences and determine
whether a word is verb, noun or adjective. Does Nutch already have similar
functionality? Can it even be done or just science fiction?
Thanks.
