18. Class Notes – Fill in left hand column = 8 parts of speech
4) Grammar Notes There are thousands of words in any language. But not all words have the same job. For example, some words express "action." Other words express a "thing." Other words "join" one word to another word. These are the "building blocks" of the language. Think of them like the parts of a house. When we want to build a house, we use concrete to make the foundations or base. We use bricks to make the walls. We use window frames to make the windows, and door frames to make the doorways. And we use cement to join them all together. Each part of the house has its own job. And when we want to build a sentence, we use the different types of word. Each type of word has its own job.

26. Diagramming Sentences

27. What is diagramming? Sentence analysis
Diagramming Begins!
What is diagramming?
Sentence analysis
Shows relationship of each word to the rest of the sentence
It is the PICTURE of the sentence.

28. First… We already know:
Every sentence MUST have a subject and predicate ()
Subject=noun
Predicate= verb = words of doing or being
Start by asking: WHO or WHAT is DOING or BEING something?
Now, draw a horizontal line and divide it with a vertical one:

29. Next…
Place the subject (noun) and all the things that go with it on the left side
Place the predicate (main verb) and all things that go with it on the right side
Subject Predicate

30. See how this basic sentence is diagrammed:
Rex barks.
Rex Barks
Subject Predicate
Who or what? Does or is what?

31. Now You Try: Rex whined. Subject Predicate
Who or what? Does or is what?

32. (Hint: be sure to include all parts of the verb.)
Good. Now Try again:
Rex was panting.
(Hint: be sure to include all parts of the verb.)
Subject Predicate
Who or what? Does or is what?

33. Rex might have been scratching.
Diagram these sentences. Remember, subject on the left, predicate on the right.
Rex might have been scratching.
Rex did bark.
Subject Predicate
Who or what? Does or is what?

34. 2. Rex could have been growling.
Diagram these sentences. Remember, subject on the left, predicate on the right.
Rex should have howled.
2. Rex could have been growling.
Subject Predicate
Does or is what?

35. Rex must have run. Rex had slept.
Diagram these sentences. Remember, subject on the left, predicate on the right.
Rex must have run.

37. Now, what if we want to make our sentences pretty. (or expressive
Now, what if we want to make our sentences pretty? (or expressive? Or more precise?)
birds sing
What if we want to know:
Which ones? Where?
What kinds? When?
Whose? Why?
How many? How?

38. ADJECTIVES
Answer the ADJECTIVE QUESTIONS about NOUNS, they are diagrammed on slanting lines under the noun they modify:
birds sing
How many birds? Three = ADJ
three

39. Now notice this sentence:
Those three blue birds sing.
Same subject and verb,
birds sing
But the noun is modified by three words that answer three different ADJECTIVE QUESTIONS.
blue
Those
three

40. The birds sing sorrowfully.
How about this?
The birds sing sorrowfully.

41. Sorrowfully answers the ADVERB QUESTION: HOW?
Adverbs:
Sorrowfully answers the ADVERB QUESTION: HOW?
birds sing
So, words that answer ADVERB QUESTIONS are placed on a slanted line under the VERB
the
sorrowfully

42. All three sentences are diagrammed in exactly the same way.
Notice that,
While an adjective usually goes in front of its noun, an adverb can hop about in the sentence:
Sorrowfully the birds sing.
The birds sorrowfully sing.
The birds sing sorrowfully.
All three sentences are diagrammed in exactly the same way.
birds
sing
the
sorrowfully

43. Diagram these sentences
Diagram these sentences. Put adjectives under nouns, adverbs under verbs.
Poor Rex whined pitifully.

44. Diagram these sentences
Diagram these sentences. Be sure to find all helping verbs, and be careful that each modifier is attached to the word it modifies.
Harry has been listening carefully.
Harry has not been listening carefully.
(Hint: “not” answers how Harry listens.)
