Preliminary Recommendations

 

Person

In the IBMF tagset, the person is numbered 1..6, thus avoiding the need for number information. The coding of an IBMF verb tag in the EAGLES scheme would therefore imply using both the Person and Number attributes.

Attribute Value Fr. example Fr. Tag
Person 1 (je) vais, (nous) allons VERB1, VERB4
2 (tu) vas, (vous) allez VERB2, VERB5
3 (il) va, (ils) vont VERB3, VERB6
