What are the parts of speech?

Answer 1

There are eight parts of speech that are nouns, verbs, adjectives, prepositions, adverbs, conjunctions, pronouns, and interjections. Punctuation marks can include the period, question mark, exclamation point, comma, colon, and quotation mark.

Answer 2

These are the basic parts of speech. There are others that are suggested as distinct from these, and there are many sub-types within each part. A part of speech may be an individual word or more than one word (e.g. noun, noun phrase). A single word may function as different parts of speech in different sentences.

1. Noun - a word that represents a person, thing or concept. The -ing (gerund) form of a verb can function as a noun.
2. Pronoun - a short form word that substitutes for other nouns. These include the nominative forms I, we, you, he, she, it, and they. The subjective forms are me, us, you, him, her, it, and them. Possessive forms are my, mine, our, ours, your, yours, his, her, its, and their. Other pronouns include the interrogative (such as what), reflexive (such as myself), relative (such as that or which), demonstrative (these, those), and indefinite (such as all, any, anybody, or none).
3. Verb - a word that performs an action or connects nouns. The name of a verb is its infinitive (to form). Vebs may be transitive (affecting an object), intransitive, or linking.
4. Adjective - a word that modifies a noun (note that nouns preceding another noun (e.g. time clock) are not adjectives, but a special class called noun adjuncts.
5. Adverb - a word that modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb.
6. Conjunction - a word that connects multiple nouns, multiple verbs, multiple phrases, or clauses in a sentence. Classically there are the words such as and, but, and or. But there are other conjunctions, divided into three classes: coordinating, correlative, and subordinating. Coordinating conjunctions include for, nor, yet, and so. Along with and, or, and but, they spell the mnemonic "fanboys." Correlative conjunctions include pairs of separated words (e.g. both/and, neither/nor). Subordinating conjunctions show time (after), cause-and-effect (because, since), opposition (though), or condition (if).
7. Preposition - a word that relates words, and allows them to modify other words. Some common prepositions are at, to, of, for, in, on. The three types of prepositions are time (after), place (in, at), and direction (under, left, to, toward). There are more than 100 prepositions, but some are no longer used in common English.
8. Article or Interjection - Various lists include either articles, interjections, or both, as parts of speech. Articles are the three words (a, an, the) that determine whether a noun is indefinite or definite. Interjections are words that have no actual relation to a sentence's meaning but represent expressions of feelings or emotions. Examples include, Hey!, Ah, Oh, Gee!, Wow!,Ouch, and Yippee! Other types of words can function as interjections when they are exclamations (indeed! All right!).
