1. A parts of speech is a term used in traditional grammar for one of the nine main
categories into which words are classified according to their functions in
sentences, such as nouns or verbs. Also known as word classes, these are the
building blocks of grammar.
2. Every sentence you write or say in English includes a few words that fall into
the nine parts of speech. These include nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives,
adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, articles/determiners, and interjections.
(Some sources include only eight parts of speech but leave off interjections as
a category).
3. + Noun
Nouns are a person, place, or thing (or even an abstraction, such as an
idea). They can take on myriad roles in a sentence, from the subject of it all to
the object of an action or any other (literal) thing in between. They are
capitalized when they're an official name of something or someone. For
example pirate, Caribbean, ship, freedom, Captain Jack Sparrow.
+ Pronoun
Pronouns stand in for nouns in a sentence. Examples: I, you, he, she, it,
ours, them, who, which, anybody, ourselves.
+ Verb
Verbs are what happens in a sentence. They're either action words or
show the state of being (is, was) of the subject of the sentence. They change
form based on tense (present, past) and the subject of the sentence (singular or
plural). Examples: sing, dance, believe, seem, finish, eat, drink, be, become.
+ Adjective
Adjectives describe nouns or pronouns. They specify which one, how
much, or what kind. Examples: hot, lazy, funny, unique, bright, beautiful, poor,
smooth.
+ Adverb
Adverbs describe verbs, adjectives, or even other adverbs. They specify
when something happened, where, how, why, and how much. Examples: softly,
lazily, often, only, hopefully, softly, sometimes.
+ Preposition
Prepositions show a relationship between a noun (or a pronoun) and the
other words in a sentence. They come at the start of a prepositional phrase. For
example: up, over, against, by, for, into, close to, out of, apart from.
+ Conjunction
Conjunctions join words, phrases, and clauses in a sentence. Examples:
and, but, or, so, yet, with.
+ Interjection
Interjections are expressions that can stand on their own as complete
sentences.They are words that often carry emotion. Examples: ah, whoops,
ouch, yabba dabba do.
