WHAT I UNDERSTAND DURING THE PRESENTATION IN CLASS

What I understand about Grammar???

1. The systematic study and description of a language.A set of rules and examples dealing with the syntax and wordstructures (morphology) of a language. Adjective: grammatical.

Pronouns :

Pronouns are words that we use in place of Nouns (or other Pronouns) in a sentence to make it less repetitive and less awkward. Some of the most common Pronouns are - he, she, you, they, it, etc. 

For example:He went to the market. - He is used for the male gender. Other examples are - His, Him, He, etc.

She is doing the laundry. - She is used for the female gender. Other examples are - Her, Hers, etc.

Adjectives:

Adjectives are words that are used to describe (what kind of?) nouns and pronouns and to quantify (how much of?) and identify (which one?) them. In a nutshell, Adjectives are what define nouns and give them characteristics to differentiate them from other nouns.

For example:He was wearing a blue shirt.

Here ‘blue’ is an adjective as it is describing the noun ‘shirt’ by answering the question ‘what kind of shirt?’ 

There are seven rooms in the house.

Here ‘Seven’ is also an adjective as it’s telling the quantity/the number of the noun ‘rooms’, answering the question ‘how many rooms?’. 

Verb:

Verbs are the most important component of any sentence.  These words tell about the action or the state of any noun or subject. This means  that Verbs show what the subject is doing or what is the state or situation of the subject. 

For example:He ran to the store. - Here the verb ran describes the action of the subject ‘he’ 

She is a creative person. - Here there is no action being done. Instead the auxiliary verb ‘is’ shows the state of the subject ‘she’ as being ‘creative’. 

Adverb:

Adverbs are words that are used in sentences to describe or change the meaning of a Verb or Adjective or even another Adverb. They add description to the sentence to make it more detailed and interesting.  

For example:He walked slowly across the square. 

Preposition:

Prepositions are the words which are used to connect the different nouns, pronouns and phrases in a sentence. It functions to introduce or precede the word or phrase to be connected, called the object of the preposition.

The preposition usually indicates the relation between the words it is connecting. It tells whether the words are connected in actual space or a place, or related through time or are they part of a thought or process. 

Prepositional phrases are the preposition and its object and any adjectives or adverbs that were applied to the object. The prepositional phrase as a whole can also be used as a noun, adverb or adjective.

For example:He found the book on the table. 

• Here the preposition is ‘on’ as it shows the relation in place between the book and the table.  
• The prepositional phrase is ‘on the table’ which is acting as an Adverb telling where the book was found.
