I like to see the text colored according to grammer. So all the
adjectives will be blue, and all verb will be yellow etc.. Is there
package for the same? How I can achieve it otherwise?

Thanks,

Manually. I have done something similar in Latin passages but I suspect
that a totally programmatic solution would be VERY difficult if not
impossible. Parts of speech in highly inflected natural languages could
probably be colorized somewhat more easily than in English but even there
much proofreading would have to be done in the final stages. Esperanto and
other artificial languages would be the easiest. Anyway, it's an
interesting question. Probably the most successful such programs will
depend more on lookup tables than on sophisticated algorithms.
