ENGLISH GRAMMAR 
PARTS OF SPEECH
INTRODUCTION 
In grammar, a part of speech is a linguistic category of words which is generally defined by the 
syntactic or morphological behavior of the lexical item in question. Common linguistic 
categories include noun and verb, among others. There are open word classes, which constantly 
acquire new members, and close word classes, which acquire new members infrequently if at all. 
Traditional grammar classifies words based on eight parts of speech 
1. The verb, 
2. The noun, 
3. The pronoun, 
4. The adjective, 
5. The adverb, 
6. The preposition, 
7. The conjunction and 
8. The interjection.
DESCRIPTION 
NOUN 
A noun is a word that names a person, place, a thing, or an idea. 
Examples : PEN, LONDON, TOWN, TEACHER 
VERB 
A verb asserts something about the subject of the sentence and express actions, 
events, or states of being. 
Examples : (to) be, have, do, like, work, sing, can, must 
ADJECTIVE 
An adjective modifies a noun or a pronoun by describing, identifying, or 
quantifying words. An adjective usually precedes the noun or the pronoun which it 
modifies. 
Examples: a/an, the, some, good, big, red, well, interesting.
ADVERB 
An adverb can modify a verb, an adjective, another adverb, a phrase , or a clause. An adverb indicates 
manner, time, place, cause, or degree and answers questions such as how, when, where, how 
much 
Examples : quickly, silently, well, badly, very, really. 
PRONOUN 
A pronoun can replace a noun or another pronoun. Using pronouns like he, which, none, and 
you to make your sentences less cumbersome and less repetitive. 
Examples : I, you, he, she, some. 
PREPOSITION 
A Preposition links nouns, pronouns and phrases to other words in a sentence, the word or phrase 
that the preposition introduces is called the object of the preposition. 
Examples: to, at after, on, but.
Conjunction 
A conjunction is a part of speech that connects two words, 
sentences, phrases or clauses. 
Examples: and, but, when. 
Interjection 
An interjection is a word added to a sentence to convey emotion. 
It is not grammatically related to any other parts of the sentence 
Examples : oh!, ouch!, hi!, well.
CONCLUSION 
Although these are the traditional eight English parts 
of speech, modern linguists have been able to classify 
English words into even more specific categories and 
sub-categories based on functions. The four main 
parts of speech in English, namely nouns, verbs, 
adjectives and adverbs, are labeled form classes as 
well. This is because prototypical members of each 
class share the ability to change their form by 
accepting derivational or inflectional morphemes.
