Parts of Speech
Parts of Speech
In traditional grammar, a part of speech is a category
of words that have similar grammatical properties. Words that are assigned to
the same part of speech generally display similar syntactic behavior. So, parts
of speech are the basic types of words that English has. There are eight Parts
of Speech commonly listed in English. These are:
1) Noun
2) Pronoun
3) Verb
4) Adjective
5) Adverb
6) Preposition
7) Interjection
8) Conjunction
In subsequent posts we will deal with these eight
parts of speech.
