Prepositions Prepositions are very difficult for second-language learners. The best way to learn to use them is to listen to native speakers use them and to read a lot of fiction. Still it often takes many years to perfect. The most difficult prepositions, in my experience, are in, on, at, and to.

The Parts of Speech Traditional grammar classifies words based on eight parts of speech: the verb, the noun, the pronoun, the adjective, the adverb, the preposition, the conjunction, and the interjection. Each part of speech explains not what the word is, but how the word is used. In fact, the same word can be a noun in one sentence and a verb or adjective in the next. The next few examples show how a word's part of speech can change from one sentence to the next, and following them is a ser ...

The Parts of the Sentence The parts of the sentence are a set of terms for describing how people construct sentences from smaller pieces. There is not a direct correspondence between the parts of the sentence and the parts of speech -- the subject of a sentence, for example, could be a noun, a pronoun, or even an entire phrase or clause. Like the parts of speech, however, the parts of the sentence form part of the basic vocabulary of grammar, and it is important that you take some time to learn and understand them. the details Subject and Predicate Objects and Complements Review: the Subject Review: the Predicate Review: Parts of the Sentence Written by Frances Peck Copyright © 1994, 1995 and 1996 by the University of Ottawa (Terms of use.)
