Refine search results by specifying part of speech

In Beolingus one could search for translations that are nouns, verbs and adjectives only:

query n = look up query and show only results where query is a noun query v = … verb query adj = … adjective

Thanks for this suggestion, I think this would be possible. What the best user interface for this is depends on a few things:

I see that in addition to nouns, verbs, and adjectives, there are quite a few other annotations, like {prp}, {pron}, or {conj}. Is it desired to filter for all of these, or only the general three categories of noun, verb, adjective?

Is it desired to filter for more than one annotation at a time? I.e. "nouns and verbs" or "everything except adjectives"?

Ok, looks like it was just "Nouns" and "Verbs", please correct me if I'm wrong:

… and "Adjective", too. The tabs were adaptive according the the search word. E.g., searching for African should show "Noun" and "Adjective" tabs.
