Liyuan Wang · Journal of Jiangsu Teachers University of Technology · 2013

In the process of language information, part-of-speech (POS) recognition is closely related to language understanding. POS recognition is essentially a matter of syntax. The article attempts to investigate POS recognition in Chinese noun-verb ambiguous words under the condition of repetition priming. Also, it explores the priming effects (PE) of word class (adjectives and adverbs) so as to deepen the perception of the process of lexical information recognition. It finds out that word class can have priming effects. It is argued that POS recognition in Chinese noun-verb ambiguous words are closely associated with the types of primes and SOA. The lexical information of noun-verb ambiguous words, esp. the recognition of POS is affected by word class of its previous word and reading time.
