Using parts of speech in reading:
When reading we can use the parts of speech to
improve how we read:
nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs are concept
words and they are to be stressed when reading.
This makes reading more interesting.
Articles, auxiliaries, pronouns, prepositions,
conjunctions and modals are function words and
they are not normally stressed when reading.
Interesting reader!

Boring reader!
Nouns
A noun is a naming word. A noun may name a person,
place, thing or idea.
Verbs
A verb is either an action word or a state-of-being word.
Adjectives
An adjective identifies, describes or modifies a noun.
Adverbs
Adverbs tell about verbs, adjectives and other adverbs.
Adverbs add meaning or intensity to verbs. Adverbs tell
how, when or where about a verb. Adverbs give degree
to adjectives.
Articles
Articles accompany nouns.
Auxiliaries/Modals
Auxiliaries help the verb to change the tense. Modals
help to give modality to verbs.
Pronouns
Pronouns take the place of nouns.
Prepositions
Propositions show position or how things go together.
Conjunctions
Conjunctions are joining words.
Interjections
Interjections express strong or sudden feeling. They
are not needed to complete a sentence.
Finite verb forms show tense, person and number (I go, she
goes, we went, etc.)

Non-finite verb forms do not show tense, person or number.


Typically they are infinitive forms with and without to (e.g. to
go, go), -ing forms and -ed forms (e.g. going, gone)

They represent a mental, intelectual, emotional state, senses,


possession, attitude and opinion.
Think, believe, love, feel, taste, have, be, measure

They describe actions: walk, read,help, talk

transmits action to an object and may also have an indirect


object:
I eat pizza.

never takes an object:


She sleeps to much.

These verbs are not followed by objects. Instead, they are followed by
phrases which give extra information about the subject: be, get,
appear, look, feel, etc

Modality: Can, could, should, must, have to, may, might, would,
Will

Auxiliaries for compound tenses, negative, question, passive


voice: be, do and have
