Miscellaneous Review
Subjects tell us whom or what a sentence is about. Subjects can be nouns or pronouns.
Verbs express actions or states of being. You've learned about helping verbs and main verbs.
Verb Types: Main verbs can be intransitive complete, transitive active, transitive passive, or intransitive linking.
Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns.
Adverbs describe verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs.
Nouns can perform different jobs in sentences (subject, direct object, indirect object, object of the preposition, noun of direct address, predicate noun).
8 Parts of Speech: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, prepositions, interjections
Phrases are groups of words, without both a subject and a verb, functioning as one part of speech. You've learned about verb phrases, prepositional phrases, gerund phrases, participial phrases, and infinitive phrases.
Clauses are groups of words with a subject and a verb. The two basic kinds of clauses are independent clauses and dependent clauses.
Dependent clauses function as single parts of speech. There are three types of dependent clauses: noun clauses, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses.
Verbal Review
Verbals are words that are formed from verbs but don't act as verbs. There are three kinds of verbals: gerunds, participles, and infinitives.
Gerunds are formed from verbs and act as nouns. They end in -ing. Swimming rules!
