RAPPIN' GRAMMAR
A noun is a person, place or thing:
like guy or school or playground swing.
A pronoun is a sub for nouns: like I and we,
him and he, she, her, it, them, they, you, me.
An adjective describes those two:
which one? what kind? how many? whose?
A verb is an action or being kind of thing:
eat, walk, were, be, shout, and sing.
An adverb gives more information:
how? when? where? why? That's this part's definition.
Prepositions pull nouns into a phrase:
in, on, under, with, around, above, hey!
Conjunctions connect words, phrases, or clauses:
if, also, but, since, for, as, because.
And interjections- Yes! Wow! Yo!
Strong feelings are what they let you know!
So now that we have this rhymin' rap,
Parts of speech will be a snap!
