POS annotations

A POS tags reader is available. For a tag like 'sfg3eþ', it returns the correponding meaning, here it is 'verb indicative active third singular past'..

Annotated texts:

• Völuspá

Be careful! POS tagged texts were annotated by a non-specialist and were not checked by 'peer' review.
