1.4. PARTS OF SPEECH

Parts of speech are the classifications of words in any language based on their function in a sentence. These are the
‘building blocks’ of any language. When we speak or write, we utilise sentences to explain ourselves. As a result, sentences
are essential.

A ‘sentence’ is a combination of words that conveys a complete meaning, thought, or action. For example, Mansi
watches cartoons on TV every day. A sentence always starts with a capital letter and ends with a full stop, question mark,
or an exclamation mark. For example:
• The teacher teaches Maths in the classroom.
• She dropped the glass.
• I am studying hard for my exams.
A phrase is a group of words that does not contain both a subject and a verb, making no sense, for example, Mansi
watches.
