You mean, how to do natural language parsing?

It's a big field. For free good stuff that's easy to play with and that
works well on English, I'd recommend CMU's downloadable link grammar
work at http://www.link.cs.cmu.edu/link/

My own analysis of language parsing shows that the overall pattern in
a sentence can be virtually anything. We can say "I did that." or
"That I did". The only way to tell if a word is a verb is by the word
itself and perhaps the words next to it, maintaining a database of
(verb,noun) pairs that make sense.
