  Part-of-speech tagging - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Part-of-speech tagging is harder than just having a list of words and their parts of speech, because some words can represent more than one part of speech at different times.
Schools commonly teach that there are 8 parts of speech in English: noun, verb, adjective, preposition, pronoun, adverb, conjunction, and interjection.
For some time, part-of-speech tagging was considered an inseparable part of natural language processing, because there are certain cases where the correct part of speech cannot be decided without understanding the semantics or even the pragmatics of the context.

 AllRefer.com - part of speech (Language And Linguistics) - Encyclopedia
part of speech, in traditional English grammar, any one of about eight major classes of words, based on the parts of speech of ancient Greek and Latin.
The parts of speech are noun, verb, adjective, adverb, interjection, preposition, conjunction, and pronoun.
Some English parts of speech (nouns, verbs, etc.) are productive classes allowing new members; others, with functional rather than lexical meaning (prepositions, articles, conjunctions) are nonproductive, having a limited number of members.

 The Parts of Speech
Traditional grammar classifies words based on eight parts of speech: the verb, the noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction, and the interjection.
Each part of speech explains not what the word is, but how the word is used.
In this example, "walk" is a noun, which is part of a prepositional phrase describing where the mail carrier stood.
