    TOPIC: PARTS OF SPEECH (Part 1)

    There are eight parts of speech in the English Language: noun, pronoun, verb, adjective, adverb,
    preposition, conjunction, interjection. The part of speech indicates how the word functions. Understanding
    parts of speech is essential for determining the correct definition of a word when using the dictionary.

    Types of Noun
     Common noun – name any person, place, animal, place, thing or idea. They are not specific and
    not written in capital letter (unless written at the beginning of the sentence)
    Example: boy, river, car, doctor

     Proper noun – are the names of specific people, place, thing, animals, or ideas. Proper nouns
    SHOULD ALWAYS be capitalized.

    Common Noun Proper Noun

     car  Fortuner
     doctor  Dr. Jefferson

     Concrete Nouns – name of people, places, or things that you can TOUCH, SEE, HEAR, SMELL, or
    TASTE

    2. Pronouns
     They take the place of nouns.

    Example: I, you, we, they, he, she, it, me, us, them, her, him, this, those, etc.

    Sample Sentence with noun:


    Wow! Lyqa likes clothes.
    Sample sentence using pronoun:

    ***The noun Lyka was replaced with the pronoun she

    3. Adjective – describes, modifies or gives information about a noun or pronoun.

    Bitter sweet yummy
    Sour delicious salty
    fruity spicy gingery

    Sam and Eric ride the bus to school each morning
    Ian reads a chapter in his books every night.

     Linking verb – not all verbs are action. Linking verbs serve as a connection between the subject
    and further information about the subject. They “link “ the subject to the rest of the sentence

    Most common linking verbs are: am, is are, was, were, has been, are being, might be, etc.

    Examples:
