---1 Cat: the Category System
-
--- The category system is central to the library in the sense
--- that the other modules ($Adjective$, $Adverb$, $Noun$, $Verb$ etc)
--- communicate through it. This means that a e.g. a function using
--- $NP$s in $Verb$ need not know how $NP$s are constructed in $Noun$:
--- it is enough that both $Verb$ and $Noun$ use the same type $NP$,
--- which is given here in $Cat$.
---
--- Some categories are inherited from [``Common`` Common.html].
--- The reason they are defined there is that they have the same
--- implementation in all languages in the resource (typically,
--- just a string). These categories are
--- $AdA, AdN, AdV, Adv, Ant, CAdv, IAdv, PConj, Phr$,
--- $Pol, SC, Tense, Text, Utt, Voc$.
---
--- Moreover, the list categories $ListAdv, ListAP, ListNP, ListS$
--- are defined on $Conjunction$ and only used locally there.
