Basic English Grammar: The Eight Parts of Speechhurrayedutech1
Most of you must be frequently coming across the term ‘lexical resource’ as part of your IELTS/PTE and Spoken English training at HURRAY. Lexical resource, simply put, is nothing but the vocabulary you build towards enhancing your speaking and writing skills. And when the talk is of vocabulary, it would be worthwhile to get down to revisiting a fundamental component in English grammar and vocabulary called Parts of Speech (abbreviated form: PoS or POS).
In this blog post, we will take you through this basic grammatical concept that you must have had often come across in your school-day grammar textbooks!
This document provides information about adverbs in English grammar. It begins by defining adverbs as words that modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs by describing how, when, where, or to what extent an action is performed. It then classifies adverbs into 10 types based on their meaning: manner, frequency, place, time, degree/intensity, interrogative, affirmation, doubt, approximation, and negation. Examples are provided for each type. The document also discusses how adjectives and nouns can be transformed into adverbs and provides guidelines and exceptions for using adjectives versus adverbs correctly. It concludes with a practice test matching adverb types to questions and identifying adverb types in sentences.
This document provides a language and grammar guide for mainstream high school teachers to help English language learner (ELL) students. It defines and provides examples of key English language concepts such as lexicon, syntax, functions, sentence structure, clauses, punctuation, verbs, nouns, adjectives, prepositions, and discourse. The guide notes common challenges ELL students face with these concepts, such as irregular verbs, plural nouns, subject-verb agreement, word order differences between English and their native language, and unfamiliar discourse markers. The overall purpose is to help teachers understand and address language barriers facing ELL students.
This document provides an overview of various grammar topics for Grade 10B students, including nouns, pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and subject-verb agreement rules. It defines each part of speech and provides examples. Key points covered include the different types of nouns and pronouns, how verbs are used in different tenses and forms, how adjectives and adverbs modify other words, the functions of prepositions and conjunctions, and rules for singular and plural subject-verb agreement. The document concludes with a reference list of additional grammar resources.
This document discusses different ways that new words can be created, including through acronyms, blending, and derivation. It notes that true coinages are rare and that new words must conform to a language's phonological and morphological rules. Acronyms are formed from the initial letters of words and can become lexicalized over time, such as HIV and laser. Backronyms are created by retrofitting an acronym's letters to real words. While word creation happens, most new words are formed based on existing linguistic elements in a language.
The document provides an overview of some key differences between English and Spanish grammar. It notes that English nouns do not have gender, adjectives generally come before nouns, and negation can only occur once in a sentence rather than twice as in Spanish. It also discusses the Saxon genitive form for possessives, the importance of word order given the lack of verb conjugation in English, and some differences in capitalization and punctuation between the two languages. The document then provides classifications of English parts of speech and examples.
The document discusses various punctuation marks including commas, periods, question marks, quotation marks, apostrophes, semicolons, and colons. It provides examples of common uses for each punctuation mark and rules for using punctuation marks together, such as question marks inside or outside quotation marks. The purpose of the document is to explain the primary functions and proper usage of basic punctuation marks in the English language.
This document contains a table of contents for a grammar book covering various topics of Spanish grammar. It includes sections on nationalities, stem-changing verbs, object pronouns, adjectives, ser vs estar, intensifiers, verbs like gustar, affirmative and negative words, commands, and more. Sample conjugations and explanations are provided throughout to demonstrate key grammar points. The document serves as a reference for students to learn essential Spanish grammar structures.
You have now explored in a practical way a number of different aspects of language and learning, including the difference between implicit and explicit knowledge of rules, rule discovery, the grammar of spoken and written English, phonology, and linguistic and communicative competence. I now want to turn to the significance of grammatical and communicative contexts for understanding words and grammatical structures. For example, in this unit you will study not only the grammar of the passive, but also the contexts in which it is used.
The unit begins with a look at what we can find out about a word in a dictionary and includes an activity to test your knowledge of grammar terminology. It finishes with a look at some of the reasons why words and patterns change over time and the question of what we consider to be 'correct' modern English.
Dictionaries can give teachers and learners an overall view of a word, with information about its many different aspects. So it's a good idea to get to enjoy using dictionaries. I'm therefore starting this unit with an activity to test your knowledge of what a dictionary can tell you about a word.
1. What information might a dictionary give about a word you look up (for example, its pronunciation)? Make a note of your ideas.
2. Now look up the word kneel in a dictionary and see what information is given. Summarize what you found.
Comment
1. Dictionaries can tell you about a word's:
pronunciation (including where the stress lies)
meaning(s)
word class(es)
different forms (for example past tense, plural)
usage
origin.
2. You could have found the following information about kneel:
how it is pronounced
that it is a verb
that it is intransitive (see below)
that it has alternative past tense forms: knelt or kneeled
that kneeled is used particularly in the United States
that kneel down is a phrasal verb
that it means fall or rest on the knees or a knee
that it comes from an old English word, cneowlian.
In a dictionary like Cobuild or The Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English, you will also find examples showing you how the word can be used: for example, He kneels beside the girl or Lottie knelt down to pray. We are also given the -ing form of the verb and an example: The kneeling figure was Mary Darling.
Transitive and intransitive verbs
A dictionary always tells you whether a verb is transitive or intransitive, that is, whether it can be followed by an object or not.
The verb 'lost' is transitive because we can put a noun after it. The verb yawned is intransitive because we can't put a noun after it.
Active and passive sentences
Sentences in English are either active or passive. Teachers of English need to understand the grammar of each of them and to be clear under what circumstances it is appropriate to use either the passive or the active. Let's start with the grammar.

When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

2. ESL Grammar: The Basics on Articles and
Prepositions (In, On, At).
Julie Hunsberger
PEGS workshop
March 22nd, 2012
3. Why articles and prepositions?
At one time English had a complex system of noun endings. Over
time those noun endings were lost, and articles and prepositions
took their place. Prepositions and articles caused rigid word order
in English.
While many languages do not have articles (e.g. Chinese,
Russian), many Western European languages, like English, do. It
is important that ESL learners learn to use them properly.
All languages have prepositions. However, English has a rather
large amount. The nuances found between their usage makes
them difficult to learn (if you are not a native English speaker).
4. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary online,
grammatical articles are:
◦ “Any of a small set of words or affixes (as a, an, and the) used with
nouns to limit or give definiteness to the application.”
◦ In other words, articles are words that occur before nouns to
describe or determine the noun (e.g. specific/non specific).
The singular indefinite article is a or an.
The plural indefinite article is some.
The definite article is the.
What are articles?
5.
6. We use articles before common nouns.
◦ Common nouns are non-specific (i.e. people, places, things,
and ideas).
When do we use articles?
People Places Things Ideas
mom garage stove development
dad house kitchen analysis
sister store oven solution
brother yard microwave collection
7. Indefinite articles occur before singular nouns that are
countable things. A/an is roughly equivalent to one.
◦ A boat=one boat
If the article occurs before a noun with a vowel sound you
would use an.
◦ An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
If the article occurs before a noun with a consonant sound
you would use a.
o A uniform is worn at many schools.
o A cat is sleeping on the couch.
Singular Common Count nouns
8. Common Count Nouns
Common Nouns: If the common nouns are also count nouns they
can take the indefinite and definite articles in all forms a/an, ø (no
article) some, the depending on the situation.
Correct Use singular/plural Incorrect use singular/plural
an apple singular an apples plural
the apple(s) singular/plural a apple plural
apples plural (ø) a apples plural
a boat singular an boat singular
some apples plural some apple singular
some boats plural some boat singular
9. When do we use articles?
We also use articles before proper nouns. Proper
nouns are specific (i.e. names of people, places,
or things)
Names of People Names of Places Names of things
Whitney Houston Los Angeles St. Patty’s Day
Michael Jackson Paris Golden Retriever
Johnny Depp Hurst Castle General Motors
Dr. Furtado The Lost Coast La-Z-Boy
10. Proper Nouns: Take either the definite article the or no article ø. They
are inherently definite. They can never take the singular indefinite
article. These nouns are an exception to the previous rule because they
are countable but can never take the singular indefinite article.
Proper Nouns
Correct Use
singular/plura
l
Incorrect Use singular/plural
The Golden Retriever is
a friendly dog. singular Golden Retriever is
a friendly dog. singular
Dr. Smith is a good
professor.
singular
A Golden Retriever
is a friendly dog. singular
Golden retrievers are
friendly dogs. plural
A Dr. Smith is a
good professor. singular
11. Non-Count nouns are non-countable (i.e. you can’t say one furniture). They
are singular in subject, they do not take the indefinite article a/an nor do they
have plural inflection. Non-Count nouns may take the indefinite article some,
the definite article the, or no article ø.
Non-Count Nouns
Correct Use
singular/plural Incorrect Use singular/plural
the furniture singular the furnitures plural
furniture singular furnitures plural
the information singular the informations plural
information singular informations plural
some furniture singular/plural a information singular
some information singular/plural a furniture singular
12. The distinction between the two types of nouns is
problematic for ESL/EFL learners because
countability and non-countability is somewhat
arbitrary.
◦ Look at the previous examples of non-count nouns:
Furniture
Information
◦ In English these are considered non-count nouns but in
Spanish and French they are count nouns.

Distinction
13. Non-Count and Count Nouns
Both plural count nouns and non-count nouns can
take the indefinite plural article some or no article
ø. If a count noun takes ø it has a plural inflection.
Non-Count
Nouns
singular/plural Count Nouns singular/plural
water singular beverages plural
some water singular/plural some beverages plural
luggage singular suitcases plural
some luggage singular/plural some suitcases plural
14. The Meanings of the Indefinite Article
a/an
We use the indefinite article to:
◦ 1. Introduce new information into the discourse. For
example, use the indefinite article a/an before a count
noun if it’s the first sentence of a paragraph.
I ate an apple on Wednesday.
◦ 2. We also use the indefinite article a/an in non-specific
noun phrases, where the identity of the noun is unknown.
Let’s rent a movie.
15. The Meanings of Some and No
Article ø
‣ Non-Specific noun phrases can also be marked with some
and ø (no article) if the noun is plural.
o Sugar makes candy delicious (non-count)
o I need some stamps (plural count noun)
o I need stamps. (plural count noun)
o The difference between some and using no article is that
ø represents an unspecific quantity. On the other hand,
some imposes a number of stamps even though the
amount is still unspecific.
16. Other Uses of Some
Watch out for some because it does not always
function as an article; sometimes it functions as a
determiner that is stressed.
◦ Particle/quantitative use: Some of the cats ran out of the
house.
◦ Emphatic: That was some party!
◦ Presentative: Some guy came to the door who wanted to
come to the party. (Some=a certain one and often conveys a
negative meaning or affect).
17. The Meanings of the Definite Article
Most instances of the definite article are non-
generic meaning they are specific.
Uses of the are usually specific to a particular
community or include a set of shared knowledge.
Now let’s look at how we use the in discourse.
18. The meanings of the Definite Article
We use the definite article the to:
◦ 1. Express old information: recall in the first example of
using the indefinite article a/an for new information, in
which some brand new noun was being introduced into
the discourse. If that noun is expressed again, use the
definite article to show that the information is already
known.
I ate an apple on Wednesday. The apple was red, juicy, and
delicious.
19. The meanings of the Definite Article
We also use the definite article when:
◦ 2. The general community understands the noun as common
knowledge:
The Sun, The moon, The Earth
◦ 3. Immediate Situational Use:
Don’t go in there. The stench is awful.
◦ 4. Perceptual situational use: the noun is visible, audible, etc.
Pass me the salt, please.
◦ 5. Local use: General knowledge or information: includes
members of the same community.
The museum, the church, the bar
20. The meanings of the Definite Article
◦ 6. Local use: specific knowledge or information--
includes members of a specific community. This
knowledge belongs to people in a smaller, private
community (e.g. family or friends). But this reference
would exclude members outside that community.
Husband: Where are the keys?
Wife: The keys are in the kitchen.
21. Modifiers between Articles and Nouns
Writers may use modifiers, such as nouns and adjectives,
between the article and the noun to specifically modify or
describe the head noun.
◦ A. One or several adjectives may appear between the
article and the head noun.
The journalist wrote the story.
The journalist wrote the top story.
The journalist wrote the first top story.
22. Modifiers between Articles and
Nouns
◦ B. One or more nouns can modify a head noun and
appear between the article and the head noun.
The journalist investigated the story.
The journalist investigated the town’s story.
The journalist investigated the town’s homicide story.
◦ C. Finally an adjective and a noun can modify a head
noun and appear between the article and the head
noun.
The journalist began to investigate a story.
The journalist began to investigate a new story.
The journalist began to investigate a new town’s story.
23. Conclusion of Articles
That concludes the presentation on articles. Now
let’s turn to some article activities!
24. The Prepositions In, On, and At
While there are many other more complex prepositions
besides in, on, and at, these are some of the most widely used
prepositions.
Understanding the concrete and abstract uses will help
ESL/EFL learners understand how to use prepositions
appropriately.
Prepositions occur before a noun or noun phrase (e.g. at the
house). They can occur at the beginning or end of sentences.
Although we see them more often at the end of sentences.

32. Conclusion
While proper article and preposition usage can
confuse many writers—especially ESL students—
everyone must learn how to use these grammatical
devices properly in academic writing.
Hopefully, you will feel more comfortable using
articles and the prepositions in, on and at in your
writing!
