Introduction

Learning about the parts of speech is the first step in grammar study just as learning the letters
of the alphabet is the first step to being able to read and write. From learning the parts of
speech we begin to understand the use or function of words and how words are joined
together to make meaningful communication. To understand what a part of speech is, you
