Hi All,

English tagset.txt explains the meaning of each postag, and includes these 2 
lines:
NN:U    Mass noun               #new tag - deviation from Penn: admiration, 
air, Afrikaans
NN:UN    Noun used as mass      #new tag - deviation from Penn: establishment, 
wax, afternoon

What is the difference between NN:U and NN:UN? 
What features of a word cause that word to be categorised the way it is?
Why, for example, is 'air' NN:U and 'wax' NN:UN?

Regards,

Mike Unwalla
