Part of Speech

It is always hard for me to understand how to identify which words belong to which part of speech in a sentence in English when my teacher explains it to me. But now I can understand it better! And yes, I also learned something new that I didn't get in my class. Here are some things I just learned in this course, and I think are important:

  1. Nouns
    "Name a person, place, thing, or idea."
    I never knew that ideas such as "success" and "loyalty" are nouns, I thought that nouns are only something you can interact with T.T

  2. Conjunctions
    "There are seven coordinating conjunctions that can be easily remembered by the acronym FANBOYS: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so."
    It is easier to remember the seven coordinating conjunctions with that acronym :D

    And in the video, it mentioned that "for" is a formal form of "because", before this, I thought that the words "for" and "because" have a completely different meaning! So glad that now I know :3
