Nouns name people, places, things, or ideas. They're important parts of our sentences because they perform important jobs(subjects, direct objects, predicate nouns, etc.). Sometimes people get bogged down with this part of speech because there are also many subcategories of nouns. This is similar to the way that we have subcategories for our clothe...
Pronouns take the place of nouns. When most people hear the word pronoun, they think of words like I, we, me, he, she, andthey. These are indeed all pronouns, but they're a part of a subcategory called personal pronouns. Know that there are other kinds of pronouns out there as well. Here are some examples: myself, his, someone, and who. Here are a ...
Verbs show actions or states of being. They are integral elements of sentences. In the Montessori tradition of education, they use a large red circle or ball to symbolize a verb, and they often teach children to think of verbs as a sun providing the energy of a sentence. Isn't that a lovely way to think of verbs? I know that you're getting tired of...
Adjectives describe, or modify, nouns and pronouns. I like to think of them as adding color to language. It would be hard to describe a beautiful sunset or the way a touching story makes us feel without using adjectives. One helpful strategy for learning about and identifying adjectives is to learn how they are diagrammed. Sentence diagrams are pic...
Adverbsmodify (describe) verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. Adverbs are similar to adjectives in that they both modify things. Sentence diagrams also make it really easy to see what adverbs do. Take a look at this diagram. What do you notice about the way the adverbs are diagrammed? Did you notice that the adverbs are diagrammed on slanted lines...
Prepositionsare probably the most difficult part of speech to explain, but people generally have an easier time understanding them when they look at lots of examples. So...let's start with some examples of commonly used prepositions! in, for, of, off, if, until I'm so convinced that memorizing some of the prepositions will be helpful to you that I'...
Conjunctionsjoin things together. They can join words or groups of words (phrases and clauses). The conjunction and is joining the words sat and waited. The conjunction or is joining the phrases near the park and near the hospital. The two conjunctions we just looked at (and and or) belong to a subcategory called coordinating conjunctions, but ther...
Interjectionsshow excitement or emotion. They are different from the other parts of speech in that they're not grammatically related to the rest of the sentence, and the way that we diagram them reflects that. Look at how we diagram interjections: The interjection yessit sits there on its own line floating above the rest of the sentence. This helps...
A type of verbal, something that's formed from a verb but doesn't function as a verb. Here in this lesson, we're covering infinitive verbals (#2 above), and I'll just be referring to them as infinitives from here on out. Words that are formed from verbs but don't act as verbs are called verbals. There are two other types of verbals: gerunds and ...
