Feature schema

Information about the dictionary format and part-of-speech tags used by mecab-ko-dic is documented in this Google Spreadsheet, linked to from mecab-ko-dic's repo readme.

Note how ko-dic has one less feature column than NAIST JDIC, and has an altogether different set of information (e.g. doesn't provide the "original form" of the word).

The tags are a slight modification of those specified by 세종 (Sejong), whatever that is. The mappings from Sejong to mecab-ko-dic's tag names are given in tab "태그 v2.0" on the above-linked spreadsheet.

The dictionary format is specified fully (in Korean) in tab "사전 형식 v2.0" of the spreadsheet. Any blank values default to *.

| index | role (Korean) | role (English) | notes | | ------|------------|-------------------------| - | | 0 | 품사 태그 | part-of-speech tag | See "태그 v2.0" tab on spreadsheet | | 1 | 의미 부류 | meaning | (too few examples for me to be sure) | | 2 | 종성 유무 | presence or absence | T for true; F for false; else * | | 3 | 읽기 | reading | usually matches surface, but may differ for foreign words e.g. Chinese character words | | 4 | 타입 | type | One of: Inflect (활용); Compound (복합명사); or Preanalysis (기분석) | | 5 | 첫번째 품사 | first part-of-speech | e.g. given a part-of-speech tag of "VV+EM+VX+EP", would return VV | | 6 | 마지막 품사 | last part-of-speech | e.g. given a part-of-speech tag of "VV+EM+VX+EP", would return EP | | 7 | 표현 | expression | "활용, 복합명사, 기분석이 어떻게 구성되는지 알려주는 필드" – Fields that tell how usage, compound nouns, and key analysis are organized |
