Where van I find explenations or translations of the "upos" tags

[rdatasculptor]

Is there some kind of translation (in preverably dutch) or explenation of the upos tags available somewhere? Since not having a background in NLP this would be very helpful for me. Many thanks in advance!

You can find these at http://universaldependencies.org/format.html, more specifically

• upos: http://universaldependencies.org/u/pos/index.html
• morphological features: http://universaldependencies.org/u/feat/index.html
• dependency relations: http://universaldependencies.org/u/dep/index.html
• for xpos you will have to look to each UD treebank which was used to build the model how the treebank-specific parts of speech tagset was defined. For English this is the Penn Treebank tagset, for Dutch e.g. this is the Alpino treebank tagset.
