Understanding the 8 Parts of Speech

The eight parts of speech are the word classes English uses to build sentences. Each one has a job: nouns name things, pronouns replace nouns, verbs show action or state, adjectives describe nouns, and adverbs modify verbs, adjectives or other adverbs. Prepositions show relationships in space or time, conjunctions join words or clauses, and interjections express strong feeling.

  • Nouns and pronouns: name people, places, things and replace them
  • Verbs: show actions, occurrences or states of being
  • Adjectives and adverbs: describe nouns, and describe verbs or adjectives
  • Prepositions: link nouns or pronouns to other words in a sentence
  • Conjunctions and interjections: join ideas, or show emotion

Use the map to revise word classes before a test, then check each branch with example sentences. To build a version from your own grammar notes, create a personalized map with CogniGuide.
