The background:
We are trying to score text passages. We have a list of adjectives and the scores associated with each one. So if "tired" is a level 1 adjective and "hungry" is a level 2 adjective, the setence "I am tired and hungry" would recieve the score of "3".

Complication:
There are actually 2 scores per text passage. a "self" score and "other" score. So all the points from adjectives refering to self goes to the self score, while adjectives refering to the other person goes ot the other score. So the sentence:
"I am tired and he is hungry"
is scored:
self=1 , other=2

The problem:
We would like to hear about any algorithms/work/modules/gossip related to how one would go about determining which adjectives belong with "self" or "other", keeping in mind that we already have a list of all the acceptable adjectives.

Thank you monks for your advice.
