These sections helped me lot to recall what I have learnt in my school days.

I like to summarize the parts of speech using simple examples

There are 8 parts of speech 

1. NOUN ( name , place, thing ,idea, animal)

       eg:  Swathi runs fast - Swathi is noun


2.PRONOUN ( Replaces the noun)

       eg: she runs fast - she is pronoun here

3. verb ( Action word)

      run - doing action 
4. adverb ( describes the verb)

       eg: fast is adverb here
5. adjective ( describes the noun or pronoun)

       Swathi is  smart and runs fast 
           smart is adjective here 
6. preposition ( relationship between noun /pronoun to the other word )   
         swathi is smart and runs fast in the marathon  
             in is preposition here
7.  conjunction ( join the the two words,phrase,or sentences )
          and is conjuction for the above sentence 
8. interjection (expresses sudden feeling or emotions) 
          hurray!! swathi won the race
