Parts of speech

Many parts of speech exist in the English language. Adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, interjections, nouns, and verbs are some to name a few. If you don’t know what some of them are, an adverb describes a verb or an adjective, like for example, slowly walking. A conjunction is a word that connects parts of sentences. ‘And’ is a conjunction. Prepositions tell what time, location, direction an object is. ‘The cat is beside the girl.’ A noun is the name of an object, place, date, or person. A verb is an action word that describes what something is doing.
