I am learning the parts of speech from this course. The parts of speech are,

1. Nouns = name a person, place, thing, or idea

    Examples ( teacher, Robert, college, California, phone, cat, success, loyalty

2. Pronouns = take a noun's place

    Examples ( he, she, they, you, it, I )

3. Adjectives = describe a noun or pronoun

    Examples ( smart, cute, expensive, black, incredible

4. Verbs = describe an action or a state

    Examples ( teach, eat, take, feel, think, believe, achieve-be )

5. Adverbs = describe a verb, adjective, or adverb

    Examples ( clearly, happily, here, well, intelligently, always )

6. Prepositions = show a relationship of place, time, location, or direction between words

    Examples ( in, on, over, at, to )

7. Conjunctions = connect words, phrases, and clauses

    Examples ( and, so, but, if, when, because )

8. Interjections = tell emotion or surprise

    Examples ( yay, oh no, oops )
