I need to find out about parts of speech mainly about nouns?

Answer 1

Hello Sergio,

A noun is a word used to name a person, animal, place, thing, and abstract idea. There are 2 basic types of nouns: proper and common nouns. Common nouns refer to a person, place, or thing in a general sense -- usually, you should write it with a capital letter only when it begins a sentence. A common noun is the opposite of a proper noun. Proper nouns, oh the other hand, are always capitalized, since the noun represents the name of a specific person, place, or thing. The names of days of the week, months, historical documents, institutions, organisations, religions, their holy texts and their adherents are proper nouns. A proper noun is the opposite of a common noun.
This is a great website that explains parts of speech. I hope it helps and Good Luck! ^_^

Nouns: what things are called
Examples: tree, car, boat, cat, dog, boy

Proper Nouns: Specific names of things.
Examples: John, Sunday, March

Verb: action words

Adjective: a word that describes a noun
Examples: "red" rose, "pretty" girl

Adverb: a word that describes a verb or an adjective
Example describing a verb:
The boy was running "fast".
Example describing an adjective:
He was a "very" good boy.

Answer 3

Nouns or pronouns - are the subject or the object of a sentence.
It may be implied also.

GO!
the noun or subject is ::: YOU, so it means YOU go.

You go and get bread at the store.
You is the pronoun and is the subject of the sentence as go
and get are the verbs.
The object is the noun - bread.

you can google or yahoo search the
