New page

The term '''part of speech''' is a synonym of [[word class]].

===Comments===
This old term has long been opaque and has tended to be supplanted by other terms in the 20th century, especially [[word class]]. However, there are of course many criteria by which one could classify words, so ''word class'' is not fully transparent either. It is perhaps for this reason that many linguists continue to use this term, especially in typology (e.g. Hengeveld et al. 2004, van Lier 2006).

===Origin===
''Part of speech'' is a [[loan translation]] of Latin ''pars orationis'', which has been the main Latin term for word classes since antiquity. ''Oratio'' means 'speech', but can also be used for 'sentence'.
