Parts of Speech
A Comprehensive Overview for Grade 11 English First Additional Language




1. Noun
A noun is a word that identifies a person, place, thing, or idea. Nouns can be further classified into
proper nouns, which denote specific names (e.g., "Sarah," "Paris"), and common nouns that refer to
general items (e.g., "city," "book").

Example:
- The dog barked loudly. (common noun)

- Elizabeth traveled to London. (proper nouns)




2. Pronoun
Pronouns are used to replace nouns in order to avoid repetition and provide clarity. Common types of
pronouns include personal (e.g., "he," "she," "they") possessive (e.g., "his," "her," "their"),
demonstrative (e.g., "this," "that"), and relative pronouns (e.g., "who," "which").

Example:
- She enjoys reading novels. (personal pronoun)

- The book is hers. (possessive pronoun)




3. Verb
A verb expresses action, occurrence, or a state of being. Verbs can be categorized as action verbs
(e.g., "run," "dance"), linking verbs (e.g., "is," "seem"), and auxiliary verbs (e.g., "have," "will") that
support main verbs.

Example:
- He runs every morning. (action verb)

- She is a talented painter. (linking verb)
