We present here, in tabular way, a sample of some of the most frequent transcategorization phenomena between interjections and other PoS. It is worth reminding here that the phenomenon involves a lot of members of the other categories, since, theoretically, each member of e.g. the noun category could be used as an interjection. The phenomenon, being impossible to control and not lexicalized but linked to the real usage in a (colloquial) context, cannot be encoded at lexical level: it can be solved at tagging level, taking into account some of the criteria listed above.
