There are eight parts of Speech, which is essential to know for beginners in learning the English language like me. these are the following:

  • Noun - names a person, things, or idea. (Example: Peanut is the name of our dog.)
  • Pronoun - replace nouns. (Example: I have a dog. Her name is Peanut.)
  • Verb - expresses a physical action or state. (Example: Peanut plays outside.)
  • Adverb - modify verbs, adjectives, or adverbs. (Example: She walked slowly.)
  • Adjective - describe nouns and pronouns. (Example: Peanut is a lovely dog.)
  • Preposition - show relationship of words and phrases. (Example: The ball is under the table.)
  • Conjunction - join words, phrases, and clauses. (Example: She is tall and slim.)
  • Interjection - shows strong emotion. (Example: Wow, That's a good news!)
