Revision on Parts of Speech: Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives, Adverbs, Conjunction, Verbs, Interjection, Pronoun.
Introduction
The indispensable aspect of a language you cannot ignore if you want to be an authority in the language are the Parts of Speech.
A part of speech is a category into which words are placed according to the functions they perform in a sentence. Every word that makes up a sentence, phrase or clause belongs to a part of speech.
Nouns
A noun is often defined as a word which names a person, place or thing. Here are some examples of nouns: boy, river, friend, Mexico, triangle, day, school, truth, university, idea, John F. Kennedy, movie, aunt, vacation, eye, dream, j7flag, teacher, class, grammar. John is a noun because it is the name of a person; Mexico is a noun because it is the name of a place; and boy is a noun because it is the name of a thing. Noun has different forms and functions. They are either proper or Improper. Common nouns are either countable or uncountable.
Pronouns
A word (one of the traditional parts of speech) that takes the place of a noun, noun phrase, or noun clause, A pronoun can function as a subject, object, or complement in a sentence. Unlike nouns, pronouns rarely allow modification.
There are different classes of Pronouns: Demonstrative, Personal, Intensive, Interrogative and Possessive.
Adjectives
Adjectives are the part of speech (or word class) that modify a noun or a pronoun.
In addition to their basic (or positive) forms (for example, big and beautiful), most descriptive adjectives have two other forms: comparative (bigger and more beautiful) and superlative (biggest and most beautiful). Different types of pronoun: Qualitative, Quantitative and Denominal.
Verbs
A verb is a part of speech (or word class) that describes an action or occurrence or indicates a state of being. Generally, it makes more sense to define a verb by what it does than by what it is. Just as the “same” word (rain or snow, for example) can serve as either a noun or a verb, the same verb can play a number of different roles depending on how it’s used.
Put simply, verbs move our sentences along in a variety of ways.
Types of verbs: regular and irregular, transitive and intransitive, finite and non-finite, auxiliary and lexical, dynamic and stative.
Adverbs
An adverb is the part of speech (or word class) that is primarily used to modify a verb, adjective, or other adverb. Adverbs can also modify prepositional phrases, subordinate clauses, and complete sentences.
Prepositions
A Preposition is a word (one of the parts of speech) that shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in a sentence.
Conjunction
A conjunction is the part of speech that serves to connect words, phrases, clauses, or sentences. The common conjunctions — and, but, for, or, nor, yet, and so — join the elements of a coordinate structure. Types of conjunction: Subordinating and coordinating.
Interjection
An Interjection is a short utterance that usually expresses emotion and is capable of standing alone. Interjections are generally considered one of the parts of speech.
In writing, an interjection is sometimes followed by an exclamation point. You might use an interjection to express surprise (Wow!), confusion (Huh?), or outrage (No!). You may use interjections in casual and in creative writing. You should not use interjections in formal writing, like book reports and research papers.
