What is a Noun (Kinds, categories & case of coun).pdfCambrige Academy
In Today’s article we study about what is noun, kinds of noun, categories of noun & case of noun. When we speak or write, we use words to express what we are thinking or feeling. In the sentence all can’t be noun. These many words which belong to the English language are classified into eight groups known as parts of speech. There are many other words and vocabularies in any language but all of them do not perform the same job.
For example,
some words express “action”.
Other words express a “thing”.
Other words “join” one word to another word. These are the “base builder” of the language. Just imagine them like the element of a house. When we want to build a house,
we use concrete to make the foundations or base.
We use bricks to make the walls.
or use window frames to make the windows, and door frames to make the doorways.
And we use cement to join them all together. Each part of the house has its own job. When we want to build a sentence, we use the different types of word. Each type of word has its own job.
