NOUN Person, place, thing or idea: “what or who” Nouns are concrete like dogs and cars. Or abstract like anger, liberty and friendship. Common like desks, puppies and mother. Or proper like Juanita, McAllen, HEB or Texas.

PRONOUN A pronoun is a short word that takes the place of a noun. Pronouns can be: Subjects : he, she,… Objects: him, her,… Possessive: his, hers,… Indefinite: nobody, all,… Demonstrative: this, those,… Interrogative: who, whom,… Important: Always be sure the pronoun has a clear referent! (If you use “they,” be sure the reader knows who “they” are.)

VERB A verb tells what the noun does or is… An action verb tells you that “She dances.” A linking or state of being verb tells you that “The monster is ugly.”

ADJECTIVE Adjectives are descriptive words used to “modify” or tell more about nouns and pronouns… Without colorful and precise adjectives, language would be pretty blah! Presenting a blue car, a red car and a light brown car…

ADVERB An adverb is a descriptive word that tells more about a verb, an adjective or another adverb. Adverbs tell how, where and when: “Yesterday, she ran quickly downtown.” The most commonly used adverb in English is “very.” Many adverbs end in “ly”: quickly, carefully, & slowly…

PREPOSITION A preposition shows a position relationship between two or more nouns or pronouns. “She walked through the door into the room.” The relationship can be spatial, as in the sentence above, or in time, as in the sentence below: “After the track meet, he was very tired.”

CONJUNCTION A conjunction is a short joining word, such as “and, or, but, for, so & yet.” The main function of a conjunction is to join words, phrases and clauses together: Slowly and carefully A red hat and a white shirt He had no ticket, but he went anyway.

“Watch out! Where’d this rocket come from???” INTERJECTION An interjection is a word (or words) of shock or surprise. It is usually used by itself and is followed by an exclamation point. Examples are: Wow!, Cool!, Awesome! and so on… “Watch out! Where’d this rocket come from???”
