Detecting a word while using the Part of Speech enumeration.

John 426

I would like to know how I could use the Part of Speech enumeration while accessing the Synonym Info object. Can anyone provide me some examples?

For example, looking up the part of speech type for the word, big.

This would be very helpful if anyone can provide me some code snippets.

The following code snippet I wrote below further explains the first two lines return as string and integer; whereas, the third line of code results in a runtime error.

Instead the third line of code must return an integer array that corresponds to the WdPartOfSpeech constants.

I have tried using the "var" and "object" data type, but it failed to work during runtime.

Can anyone provide me examples of how to return that line of code that has a Part of speech list property an array of integers?

           // This returns as string data type.
           string strWord = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.SynonymInfo["big", objLanguage].Word;
           // This returns as integer data type.
           int iMeaningCount = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.SynonymInfo["big", objLanguage].MeaningCount;
           // The following line of code below must return an array of integers 
           // that correspond to the WdPartOfSpeech constants.
           int speech = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.SynonymInfo["big", objLanguage].PartOfSpeechList;
          
           Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Selection.TypeText(strWord);
           Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Selection.TypeText(iMeaningCount.ToString());
