基於分類的分塊涉及將文字分類為一組單詞而不是單個單詞。一個簡單的場景是在句子中標記文字，將使用語料庫來演示分類。選擇具有來自華爾街日報語料庫(WSJ)的資料的語料庫conll2000，用於基於名詞短語的分塊。
首先，使用以下命令將語料庫新增到環境中。
import nltk
nltk.download('conll2000')
看看這個語料庫中的前幾句話。
from nltk.corpus import conll2000
x = (conll2000.sents())
for i in range(3):
print x[i]
print '\n'
當執行上面的程式時，我們得到以下輸出 -
['Confidence', 'in', 'the', 'pond', 'is', 'widely', 'expected', 'to', 'take', 'another', 'sharp', 'dive', 'if', 'trade', 'figres', 'for', 'September', ',', 'de', 'for', 'release', 'tomorrow', ',', 'fail', 'to', 'show', 'a', 'sbstantial', 'improvement', 'from', 'Jly', 'and', 'Agst', "'s", 'near-record', 'deficits', '.']
['Chancellor', 'of', 'the', 'Excheqer', 'Nigel', 'Lawson', "'s", 'restated', 'commitment', 'to', 'a', 'firm', 'monetary', 'policy', 'has', 'helped', 'to', 'prevent', 'a', 'freefall', 'in', 'sterling', 'over', 'the', 'past', 'week', '.']
['Bt', 'analysts', 'reckon', 'nderlying', 'spport', 'for', 'sterling', 'has', 'been', 'eroded', 'by', 'the', 'chancellor', "'s", 'failre', 'to', 'annonce', 'any', 'new', 'policy', 'measres', 'in', 'his', 'Mansion', 'Hose', 'speech', 'last', 'Thrsday', '.']
接下來，使用函式tagged_sents()來獲取標記到其分類器的句子。
from nltk.corpus import conll2000
x = (conll2000.tagged_sents())
for i in range(3):
print x[i]
print '\n'
當執行上面的程式時，我們得到以下輸出 -
[('Confidence', 'NN'), ('in', 'IN'), ('the', 'DT'), ('pond', 'NN'), ('is', 'VBZ'), ('widely', 'RB'), ('expected', 'VBN'), ('to', 'TO'), ('take', 'VB'), ('another', 'DT'), ('sharp', 'JJ'), ('dive', 'NN'), ('if', 'IN'), ('trade', 'NN'), ('figres', 'NNS'), ('for', 'IN'), ('September', 'NNP'), (',', ','), ('de', 'JJ'), ('for', 'IN'), ('release', 'NN'), ('tomorrow', 'NN'), (',', ','), ('fail', 'VB'), ('to', 'TO'), ('show', 'VB'), ('a', 'DT'), ('sbstantial', 'JJ'), ('improvement', 'NN'), ('from', 'IN'), ('Jly', 'NNP'), ('and', 'CC'), ('Agst', 'NNP'), ("'s", 'POS'), ('near-record', 'JJ'), ('deficits', 'NNS'), ('.', '.')]
