The Nine Parts of Speech
If our recipe is “The English Language,” then our
ingredients list consists of the nine parts of
speech.
1. Nouns (the bread)
2. Verbs (the meat)
3. Pronouns (the type of bread)
4. Adverbs (the type of meat)
5. Adjectives (the butter)
6. Conjunctions (the cheese)
7. Articles (the mayo)
8. Prepositions (the lettuce)
9. Interjections (the mustard)
