( Part of speech) In grammar, a lexical category (also word class, lexical class, or in traditional grammar part of speech) is a linguistic category of words (or more precisely lexical items), which is generally defined by the syntactic or morphological behaviour of the lexical item in question. Common linguistic categories include noun and verb, among others. There are open word classes, which constantly acquire new members, and closed word classes, which acquire new members infrequently if at all.

Different languages may have different lexical categories, or they might associate different properties to the same one. For example, Japanese has as many as three classes of adjectives^{[citation needed]} where English has one; Chinese, Korean and Japanese have measure words while European languages have nothing resembling them; many languages don't have a distinction between adjectives and adverbs, or adjectives and nouns^{[citation needed]}, etc. Many linguists argue that the formal distinctions between parts of speech must be made within the framework of a specific language or language family, and should not be carried over to other languages or language families.

The classification of words into lexical categories is found from the earliest moments in the history of linguistics.^[1] In the Nirukta, written in the 5th or 6th century BCE, the Sanskrit grammarian Yaska defined four main categories of words&_160;^[2]

These four were grouped into two large classes inflected (nouns and verbs) and uninflected (pre-verbs and particles).
