A. NOUN
Noun is a word used as the name of anything, like a person, an animal, an object, a place, a
situation, a quality or an idea.
Kinds of noun :
Proper noun
Proper nouns are the names of individual people, places, titles, calendar times, etc.Proper nouns are
always written with a capital letter.
Common noun
Nouns which are not written with a capital letter do not refer to the name of an individual person or thing
and are called common nouns.
Material noun
A material noun is a word for a material, a substance, or an ingredient that other things are made from.
Collective noun
A collective noun refers to a group of people, animals or objects as a group, family, company, etc.
example : - The army made the ceremony
- Those are navy
B. VERB
Verb is the part of speech that expresses existence, action, or occurrence in most languages.
Verbs are a necessary component of all sentences. Verbs have two important functions: Some verbs put
static objects into motion while other verbs help to clarify the objects in meaningful ways. Look at the
examples below :
My grumpy old English teacher smiled at the plate of cold meatloaf
My grumpy old English teacher = static object; smiled = verb
The important thing to remember is that every subject in a sentence must have a verb. Otherwise,
you will have written a fragment, a major writing error.
C. PRONOUN
Pronoun is the part of speech that substitutes for nouns or noun phrases and designates persons
or things asked for, previously specified, or understood from the context.
Kinds of pronoun :
Personal pronoun
A pronoun designating the person speaking (I, me, we, us), the person spoken to (you), or the person or
thing spoken about (he, she, it, they, him, her, them).
example : I have a stamp album
Possessive pronoun
One of several pronouns designating possession and capable of substituting for noun phrases.
example : The blue pen is mine
Demonstrative pronoun
A pronoun that points out an intended referent
example : That is a good idea
Relative pronoun
A pronoun that introduces a relative clause and has reference to an antecedent
example : I like the person who is diligent
Interrogative pronoun
Used for the item interrupted in an information statement
example : Whose is the pen ?
Indefinite pronoun
An indefinite pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun (or noun phrase) that is an unknown or
unnamed person, thing, or amount
example : Someone sent me a letter
D. INTERJECTION
Interjection is a part of speech that can stand alone to express emotion or a reaction. Although an
interjection can form a complete sentence (that is, expressing a thought without need of a subject and
verb), one can often also be inserted within a sentence, usually parenthetically or separated by commas
from the rest of the sentence. In written Spanish and English, an interjection frequently is used with
exclamation marks. An interjection is sometimes expressed as a single word or non-sentence phrase,
followed by a punctuation mark. The isolated usage of an interjection does not represent a complete
sentence in conventional English writing. Thus, in formal writing, the interjection will be incorporated into a
larger sentence clause. It also can be a reply to a question or statement.
Example : - Ah! I've won!
- Dear me! That's a surprise!
- Hello! My car's gone!
- Hey! look at that!
- Hey! What a good idea!
- Oh! You're here!
- Oh, please say 'yes'!
- Ouch! That hurts!
- Hurray! I win the game!
- Oh! I've got a toothache
- Hey! What a beautiful view!
E. ADJECTIVE
Adjective is the part of speech that modifies a noun or other substantive by limiting, qualifying, or
specifying and distinguished in English morphologically by one of several suffixes, such as -able, -ous,
-er, and -est, or syntactically by position directly preceding a noun or nominal phrase. Adjectives are
descriptive words. An adjective is a word which qualifies a noun, that is, shows or points out some
distinguishing mark or feature of the noun.
F. ADVERB
The part of speech that modifies a verb, adjective, or other adverb, clause, sentence or any other
word or phrase, except that it does not include the adjectivesand determiners that directly modify nouns.
Adverbs are traditionally regarded as one of theparts of speech, although the wide variety of the functions
performed by words classed as adverbs means that it is hard to treat them as a single uniform category.

example : I’m studying English now
Adverb of place
Adverbs of place tell us where something happen
example : She studies English here
Adverb of manner
Adverbs of manner are the largest group of adverbs. Most adverbs of manner are closely related to
corresponding adjectives. Although some words can be used as either adjectives or adverbs, in most
cases, adverbs of manner are formed by adding ly to the corresponding adjectives.
example : They worked hard
Adverb of degree
Adverbs of degree tell us about the intensity or degree of an action, an adjective or another adverb.
example : I quite understand
Adverb of frequency
Adverbs of frequency tell hosw often something occurs or is done.
example : He eats twice every day
Adverb of affirmation
Adverbs of affirmation are those adverbs that are used to indicate that a statement is true or that in some
other way to affirm it.
example : Of course she can speak English
Adverb of interrogative
An interrogative adverb is used to ask for new information or facts.

ther word; a particle used with anoun or pronoun (English always in the objective case) to make aphrase l
imiting some other word; so called because usually placed beforethe word with which it is phrased; as, a
bridge of iron; he comes fromtown; it is good for food; he escaped by running.
A preposition links nouns, pronouns and phrases to other words in asentence. The word or
phrase that the preposition introduces is called the object of the preposition.
A preposition usually indicates the temporal, spatial or logical relationship of its object to the rest
of the sentence as in the following
