Abstract
Multilingual users of social media sometimes use multiple languages during conversation. Mixing multiple languages in content is known as code-mixing. We annotate a subset of a trilingual code-mixed corpus (Barman et al., 2014) with part-of-speech (POS) tags. We investigate two state-of-the-art POS tagging techniques for code-mixed content and combine the features of the two systems to build a better POS tagger. Furthermore, we investigate the use of a joint model which performs language identification (LID) and partof-speech (POS) tagging simultaneously.
