In this forum, I considered that the eight parts of speech are very useful for understand better the sentences of standard english.

Nouns: name a person or place (can be common or proper nouns, the proper nouns are used to specific persons)


Robert is a teacher in California


The word "Robert" is a proper noun 


Verbs: used to express an action or state


"They walk quickly together every day"


The word quickly is an adverb.


Now, the most useful in a informal conversation: Interjections. They are typically used to express emotion


Ouch! That hurts! - pain expression
