This is not about a person...

This page is about Me, the virtual/personal assistant packaged with Q OS.

This page is currently mainly just to store technical information about Me and therefore it is probably not interesting to read 😄 but you can read it anyway if you want.

Sorting Words

The first step Me takes when trying to get an answer for a question is to find what kind of word each word in your sentence is.

There are a few main categorises of words that Me sorts apart and they are listed below in point form.

  1. Unknown
  2. Noun
  3. Verb
  4. Adjective
  5. Adverb
  6. Interjection
  7. Preposition
  8. Conjunction
  9. Pronoun

As you can see, the main categories are pretty simple and easy to understand, at least for us humans. For a computer, being able to sort words just into these categories is a huge task. You might think it is easier, or harder, to sort between all the sub-categories that Me also needs to sort words into.

To put it in a potentially simpler way, Me will first sort a word into one of the above categories, then it will sort it into a more precise sub-category of the one it was initially put into.

Each category has a number, like you can see above. Likewise, each sub-category has a decimal number.

The entire list of categories and sub categories is shown below.

I currently only have sub-categories for nouns and verbs but expect all the other categories to have there respective sub-categories sometime in the future.
