Parts of Speech





Introduction to Parts of Speech

If we observe the title of the lesson ‘Parts of Speech’, we could understand that there are two important words to be understood. They are ‘Parts’ and ‘Speech.” As we know the word ‘part’ i.e., ‘some but not all of a thing’ and the word ‘Speech’ i.e., sentence. Hence ‘Parts of Speech’ is to be understood that ‘Parts of Sentence.’
So when we think of parts of speech we must think of parts of sentence. We know a sentence is constructed by two major parts: the subject and the predicate. The subject is built by one or more words or a phrase. In the same manner a predicate is also built by a word (verb) or more words along with a verb. (To read more about Subject and Predicate click here)
Finally we come to a conclusion that a sentence consists of one or more words; actually they are the parts of sentence. (Remember it is an introductory article on Parts of Speech. Search this site for detailed individual parts of speech later or follow us for updates.)
For instance:
1.     Srikanth is a very good runner. (6 words of a sentence)
2.     Silence! (1 word of a sentence)
3.     May god bless you! (4 words of a sentence)
4.     This is the article that you are eagerly studying to learn something about the parts of speech of English grammar. (20 words of a sentence)
Note: We’ve to keep it in mind that any isolated word that is not part of a sentence doesn’t belong to any kind of part of speech.
In English grammar the words of a sentence are grouped into eight (8) according to its function.
They are:
1.     Noun
2.     Pronoun
3.     Adjective
4.     Verb
5.     Adverb
6.     Preposition
7.     Conjunction and
8.     Interjection

1.      Noun: A noun is a naming word in a sentence, naming word of a person, place, thing or an idea.
For example:
Shivani is a student. (Shivani and student are names of a people - noun)
Hyderabad is a big city. (Hyderabad and city are names of places - noun)
This is a teak wooden table. (Table is the name of a thing – noun)
Friendship lasts forever. (Friendship is the name of an idea – noun)
2.      Pronoun: A pronoun is a word used instead of a noun in a sentence.
For example:
Anil is a teacher of Mathematics. He teaches well. Students love his teaching. They prefer to stay more time in his class.
He and his are used instead of Anil. They is used instead of students.
3.      Adjective: An adjective is a word that says something about a noun i.e. the noun’s quality, quantity, colour, number, size, shape, origin etc.
For example:
This is a rose. (noun)
It is a beautiful rose.
It is a beautiful red rose.
It is a beautiful red Arabian rose.
A, beautiful, red and Arabian are the words that tells the number, quality, colour, and origin of the rose. Hence they are adjectives in those sentences.
4.      Verb: A verb is the heart of a sentence. It tells the action or state of the subject in the sentence.
For example:

Let’s learn the parts of speech in detail in the next individual articles.
This is an introductory article about ‘Parts of Speech.’
5.      Adverb: An adverb is a word that qualifies or says something about a verb or an adjective or another adverb.
For example:
He runs fast. (Qualifies the verb run)
You are very smart student. (Qualifies the adjective smart)
He runs too fast. (Qualifies the adverb fast)
6.      Preposition: The preposition is a word that connects a noun or noun phrase or a pronoun with another word in a sentence.
For example:
The cat is on the table.
You sat in an arm chair.
They quarreled among themselves.
7.      Conjunction: It is a word that connects words, phrases or clauses in a sentence.
For example:
Shivani reads and writes English. (Connects two words)
There is fight between a beautiful rose and an adventurous ant. (Connects two phrases)
Someone knocked at the door while we were having our lunch. (Connects two clauses)
8.      Interjection: An interjection is word that is used to show a sudden feeling or emotion in a sentence. It doesn’t mean anything but emotion or feeling.
For example:
Hey! How are you?
Alas! He was injured severely.
Hurrah! India won the match.

Each part of speech is separately discussed in detail in individual articles here after.

Sentenceలోని Subjcect మరియు Predicate అంటే ఏమిటి?

Parts of the sentence Subjcect and Predicate తెలుగులో



PARTS OF THE SENTENCE: SUBJECT AND PREDICATE

A sentence is a grammatically independent unit of expression, made up of two essential parts called the Subject and the Predicate.
(ప్రతి sentence లో Subject మరియు Predicate అనే రెండు భాగాలుంటాయి.)
Every complete sentence has a subject and a predicate.
THE TWO MAIN PARTS OF A SENTENCE
The Subject
The Predicate
The girl                                           dances well.



The girl is a subject and dances well is the predicate. If I come up to you and say "The girl", you know that is the subject about which I wish to talk. But I have said nothing about the subject. To make a sentence I must say something about the girl.

          If I say "The girl dances well", I have expressed a complete thought and I
have made a sentence.

          In grammar the person or place or thing or idea we speak about is called the subject. What we say about the subject is called the predicate.
(ఒక sentence లో దేని గురించి అయితే తెలుపుతున్నామో అనగా person or place or thing or idea అనేది subject అవుతుంది. పై ఉదాహరణలో the girl. అలాగే ఆ subject గురించి ఏమి తెలుపుతున్నామో అది predicate అవుతుంది. పై ఉదాహరణలో dances well.)
THE SUBJECT
Definition:
Subject tells the listener and the reader whom or what the sentence is about. The subject is that part of a sentence which names a person or place or thing or idea.
For example:
The lion
The teacher
Stars
The dog
Flowers
The sun
Clock
The girl
The horse
Anil
The Child
The newspaper
Every complete subject contains a simple subject. The simple subject, which is a noun or pronoun, is the most important word in the complete subject.
(ప్రతీ ఒక complete subject లో ఒక simple subject ఉంటుంది. అది noun గానీ pronoun గానీ అయి వుంటుంది.)
For example:
A loud argument                                  has been taken place.
The newspaper article                          attracted Nick Vujicic.
We                                                        listened to the radio at the school.
Idly and Dosa                                       are Shravan’s favorite breakfast.


Note:  One couldn’t find any subject in some imperative sentences. But the subject is to be understood as ‘you.’
(Imperative sentencesలో subjectను youగా అర్థం చేసుకోవాలి. కానీ sentenceలో సాధారణంగా you ఉండదు.)
For instance:

1.     Get out! (To be understood that ‘You get out.’)
2.     Please sit down. (To be understood that ‘You please sit down.’)
3.     Stupid! (To be understood that ‘You stupid.’)
4.     Take your seat. (To be understood that ‘You take your seat.)

THE PREDICATE
Definition:
The predicate is that part of a sentence which tells something about the subject.
For example:
teaches well
eats grass
twinkle at night
is the cell phone
shines during the day
bite the boy
crows in the morning
dances well
is clever
A simple predicate describes the action or condition of the subject or subjects in a sentence. Hence a simple predicate is a verb.
 For example:
Rama sketched a picture of an elephant.
We always support each other.
Santhoshini rarely complains about friends.
SUBJECT AND PREDICATE EXAMPLES
Notice how the following sentences are divided into subject and predicate:
Subject
Predicate
The teacher
teaches well.
Stars
twinkle at night.
Flowers
bloom in the garden.
Dogs
like to bark and sniff.
Active boys
never stop playing.
