Conjunctions
Conjunction is a word that joins words, phrases,clauses or sentences together. There are different types of
conjunctions. Some conjunctions may be used to make a list while some may be used to connect thoughts, ideas
or actions. For example: You have to buy me an ice cream or a chocolate today.
Prepositions
Preposition is a word that shows a relationship between a noun and a pronoun in a sentence. For example: We are
ahead of that blue van.
Interjections
An interjection is a word or a phrase that expresses a sudden or a strong feeling. Grammatically they are not
related in a sentence but express a relationship between a word and a phrase in a sentence. Sometimes they are
followed by an exclamation mark(!). For example: Great! You are coming with me.
Use of Articles
Article is a word that describes the noun. It is used before a noun to show whether it is specific or not. In English
grammar there are three articles—A, An, The. Let us study about them in detail.
Definite—The
“The” is a definite article which is used before a noun that indicates something clear or obvious.
For example: The sun shines bright today.
Indefinite—A, An
‘A’ and ‘An’ are indefinite articles which are used before a noun that are not specific or known before.
• “A” is used before a word beginning with a consonant(alphabets other than vowels) sound.
For example: A book (it can be any book)
• “An“ is used before a word that begins with a vowel (a, e, i, o, u) sound.
For example: An umbrella
When No Articles are Used
• For common/general things. For example: Fruits are good for health.
• Before a country, continents, islands, mountains and lakes’ name. For example: I live in India.
• Before a sport/games names. For example: I like swimming.
