	Basque has constructions to express positions relative to an object which are based around what we could call positional nouns. For instance the positional noun 'aurre' (front part) is used in 'etxearen aurrean' (in front of the house) or 'etxearen aurretik' (starting at the front of the house). Here is a non-exhaustive list of these positional nouns:		Basque has constructions to express positions relative to an object which are based around what we could call positional nouns.

 The way Basque is analysed in our system gives us some problems in this aspect. Since lexical forms are agglutinated to form a 'word' and the analysis of the lexical forms that form  a word is joined with '+' in the stream, the LRLM system is not applied in this case.
-For example: ''berri'' means ''new'' (adjective and noun). ''Berriz'' is and adverb meaning ''again'' or ''on the other hand'', which can be split into ''berri''<adj> and ''z''<post>. According to the method of analysis described above for romance languages, the analysis ''berriz''(adv) should overwrite the analysis ''berri''(adj) + ''z''(post). But this does not happen in this system and all possible analysis are delivered to the tagger, which has to decide which one is better (and in most cases has not enough information to do this):

 [The problem seems to be hard and not easy to solve; perhaps the tagger could be instructed to preserve the chosen path instead of reassembling LFs from different paths into an impossible analysis.]
