Overview

All the words are analysed with dictionary form + grammatical tags. Each tag is introduced with a “+” sign. We thus have

bïjlem bïjle+N+Sg+Acc
båatam båetedh+V+IV+Ind+Prs+Sg1

The main parts of speech (POS) for South Saami are:

Nouns, adjectives, verbs, pronouns, adverbs, particles, subjunctions, conjunctions, postpositions, prepositions and interjections.

The nouns

The string is “+N+Number+Case+Possessivesuffix+Clitic”. The word form “nïejteme” ‘my girl’ is thus analysed as “nïejte+N+Sg+Nom+PxSg1”.

Here is a list of the nominal tags, given in the same order as for the analysis.

   
Part of speech:  
Number: +Sg, +Pl
Case: +Ess +Nom +Gen +Acc +Ill +Ine +Ela +Com
(Possessive suffix:) +PxSg1 +PxSg2 +PxSg3 +PxDu1 +PxDu2 +PxDu3 +PxPl1 +PxPl2 +PxPl3

The adjectives

Used non-attributively the adjective resembles the noun:

   
Part of speech: +A
(Grade:) +Comp, +Superl
Number: +Sg, +Pl
Case: +Ess +Nom +Gen +Acc +Ill +Ine +Ela +Com

Used attributively the adjective has a quite simple tag scheme:

   
Part of speech: +A
Attribute +Attr

The verbs

Finite and infinite verb forms have quite distinct paradigms. Finite first:

   
Part of speech: +V
(Derivation) +Der/PassL
Mood: +Ind, +Cond, +Imprt
Tense +Prs, +Prt
Person/Number +Sg1 +Sg2 +Sg3 +Du1 +Du2 +Du3 +Pl1 +Pl2 +Pl3, +ConNeg

Infinite verb forms:

   
Part of speech: +V
(Derivation:) +Der/PassL
Nominal verb form +Inf, +Ger, +PrsPrc, +PrfPrc, VGen, +VAbess

The pronouns

The personal, demonstrative and interrogative pronouns:

baseform+Pron+Pers+NumberPerson+Case

Example:

underlying form: manne+Pron+Pers+Sg1+Com, surface form: mannine
dat+Pron+Dem+Pl+Nom

The reflexive pronouns:

baseform+Pron+pronoun_type+Case(+possessive suffix)

Example: underlying form: ieš+Pron+Refl+Loc+PxDu1, surface form: alddáme

The indeclinable words

These have their POS tag as their only tag:

underlying form: birra+Pr or birra+Po
surface form:    birra
