Today I'm starting primary English grammar teaching, especially for those who are interested in English speaking.
There are four levels of English grammar.
1. Parts of speech
2. Sentences
3. Phrases
4. Clauses
First of all, I'm starting from parts of the speech. There are eight parts of speech.
1. Noun
A noun is the name of any person, place or object.
For example
Playground, bat and ball, Mr Iqbal.
There are two kinds of nouns.
These are Common nouns and Proper nouns.
Common nouns are general names of things
like a bird, water, boy.
Proper nouns are particular names of things like Quaid e Azam, rose plant, Karachi.
2. Pronoun
A pronoun is used in the place of a noun. To whom you are talking about.
For example
Doctor Tahir is the best surgeon in town.
Then in the following sentences, you can use, he did specialisation from Canada.
You don't need to use his name again and again.
3. Adjective
The quality of a noun is called an adjective.
It will help if you need to describe a noun, like " a long tree" word long shows the quality of a tree, " a clever fox" word clever shows the quality of fox.
4. Verb
Verb are those words that show an action, like eat, think, speak, act.
5. Adverb
The quality of a verb is called an adverb. An adverb describes that how a verb happens.
Like there are some examples.
I did my work happily. Happily is an adverb that shows the quality of the verb.
I hardly reach my home due to heavy rain. In this sentence, Hardly is an adverb.
6. Preposition
Prepositions are words that combine words to make a complete sentence.
Here are few examples like
I put my glasses ON the table. In this sentence, ON is a preposition.
She doesn't want to enter IN the class. In this sentence, IN is a preposition.
7. Conjunction
Conjuction is a word that creates a link between your sentences to give them a flow.
For example
I like tea. I like coffee. I don't enjoy cold drinks.
Do these sentences sound good???
Now take a look at these sentences
I like tea and coffee, but I don't enjoy cold drinks.
In these sentences, And and But is a conjunction that makes a proper sentence and links with others.
8. Interjection
An interjection shows the emotion or feeling of a person. These words are used before or after a sentence.
Interjections express a sentiment such as surprise, happiness, excitement, sadness.
Like Oh, Hurray, Alas, Yahoo.
