DEFINITIONS

  A Pronoun is a word used for or instead of a noun to keep us from repeating the same noun too often. Pronouns, like nouns, have case, number, gender and person. There are three kinds of pronouns, personal, relative and adjective.

  A verb is a word which signifies action or the doing of something. A verb is inflected by tense and mood and by number and person, though the latter two belong strictly to the subject of the verb.

  An adverb is a word which modifies a verb, an adjective and sometimes another adverb.

  A preposition serves to connect words and to show the relation between the objects which the words express.

  A conjunction is a word which joins words, phrases, clsuses and sentences together. An interjection is a word which express surprise or some sudden emotion of the mind.
