Compromise Tags (Part-of-Speech tagset)

Every term is assigned one or more of these 89 tags. Use them in match-patterns with a # prefix, e.g. doc.match('#Person').

Tags are a hierarchy: tagging a term #FirstName also makes it a #Person and a #Noun. Tagging a term one thing may remove conflicting tags (a term can't be both #Singular and #Plural).

⚠️ Only the tags listed here are valid. #Name, #Subject, #Object, #Adj etc. are not real tags and silently match nothing.
