Noun words found before a verb?

Answer 1

Articles, adjectives, adverbs, nouns, and pronouns can be used to before a noun to modify that noun.

The articles are:

DEFINITE ARTICLE: the; used to identify a specific noun.

INDEFINITE ARTICLES: a (used before a noun starting with a consonant sound), an (used before a noun starting with a vowel sound); used to identify a singular general noun.

ADJECTIVES: An adjective describes or qualifies a noun (a big dog, a small dog); adjectives are used before the noun or after the verb (This is an easy subject. or This is hard.); two or more adjectives can be used together (a beautiful, young lady). There are hundreds of adjectives, some samples are: happy, sad, green, white, special, somber, chewy, dark, heavy, sweet, lucky, wonderful, etc.

ADVERBS: An adverb, which is used to modify verbs, also modify adjectives, which is additional information about a noun; for example a very happy birthday, his frequently long speeches, a simply delicious dish, etc.

ATTRIBUTIVE NOUNS are nouns used to describe other nouns (nouns used as adjectives), for example horse farm, house plant, vegetable broth, school books, shoe lace, ranch dressing on a house salad, etc.

The modifying pronouns are:

PERSONAL PRONOUNS, my, your, his, her, their, its.

DEMONSTRATIVE PRONOUNS, this, that, these, those, the former, etc.

DISTRIBUTIVE PRONOUNS, each, either, none, neither, etc.

NUMERAL PRONOUNS, some, any, few, many, none, all, etc.

ADDITIONALLY: A predicate nominative or a predicate adjective restates a noun following a linking verb or the object of a verb, telling something about the noun.

Answer 2

The words that can be placed before a noun or a pronoun are:

• articles: the boy, a book, an animal
• adjectives: little boy, good book, wild animal
• prepositions: for him, with it, about them

Answer 3

The noun that a pronoun replaces in a sentence is its antecedent.

In most cases, the antecedent comes appears before the pronoun, but not always.

Examples:

• When George got to 19th Street, he got off the train. (the antecedent noun 'George' comes before the pronoun 'he')
• He is the driver of the bus. (the pronoun 'he' comes before the antecedent 'driver')
• They saw what happened. They are the witnesses. (the pronoun 'they' x2 comes before the antecedent 'witnesses')

Sometimes no antecedent is used at all:

• She is wearing the shoes I've been looking for. (speaker is gesturing)
• I should ask her where she got them.
• I think you did fine! (no antecedent required for first and second person)
