Part-of-speech tagging is an important step in natural language processing. Part-of-speech tagging is an ambiguous process because a word can represent morethan one part of speech at different times. Most difficult task is because it deals with ambiguities of the word. A word, phrase, or sentence is ambiguous if it has more than one meaning. The word 'light', for example, can mean not very heavy or not very dark. There are two types of ambiguity which are lexical and structural. When a word has more than one meaning, it is said to be lexically ambiguous. When a phrase or sentence can have more than one structure it is said to be structurally ambiguous.
