Abstract of the volume
How to define the noun ? What is a verb ? Should a pronoun be made a separate category from a noun ? Why is the article a recognised category only in some languages ? At what point has the adjective been made a separate class of words ? Can interjections be found in all languages ? Are there universal word classes ? Why does the number of parts of speech vary from one language to another ?
