The query:
SELECT A.*
FROM TagTable as A
WHERE partOfSpeechWord2 =
(SELECT TOP 1 B.partOfSpeechWord2
FROM TagTable as B
WHERE A.word1 = B.word1
AND A.word2 = B.word2
ORDER BY B.freq desc)
And the update, which includes the above query as a derived table.
UPDATE NeedsTag
SET partOfSpeechWord2 = X.partOfSpeechWord2
FROM (SELECT A.*
FROM TagTable as A
WHERE partOfSpeechWord2 =
(SELECT TOP 1 B.partOfSpeechWord2
FROM TagTable as B
WHERE A.word1 = B.word1
AND A.word2 = B.word2
ORDER BY B.freq desc)) as X
WHERE NeedsTag.word1 = X.word1
AND NeedsTag.word2 = X.word2
