IMPORTANCE OF SYNTAX
The syntax is the arrangement of words and phrases to create a well-formed sentence that is understandable and the study of the formation of sentences and the relationship of their component parts.
SUBJECT
In a sentence, there is always a "subject" on which the sentence is focused. Therefore, a subject is a person or thing that is being discussed, described, or dealt with. In other words, we can specify subject as the part of a sentence or clause that commonly indicates (a) what it is about, or (b) who or what performs the action (that is, the agent).
EXAMPLE:- In the sentence “The cat is sleeping in the sun,” the word cat is the subject.
VERB
Verbs are words that show action (sing), occurrence (develop), or state of being (exist).
EXAMPLE:- Jennifer walked to the store. In this sentence, walked is the verb that shows action.
OBJECT
An object is a noun (or pronoun) that is governed by a verb or a preposition. There are three kinds of objects: Direct Object (e.g., I know him.) Indirect Object (e.g., Give her the prize.) The Object of a Preposition (e.g., Sit with them.)
PHRASE
It is a group of two or more words that express a single idea but do not form a complete sentence.
EXAMPLE:- Happy family camping by a river.
CLAUSE
A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a predicate, but do not express a complete thought.
EXAMPLE:- He was eating a bacon sandwich.
SENTENCE
A combination or group of words that gives a complete meaning thought or idea is called a sentence.
EXAMPLE:- My mom taught me to finish everything on my plate at dinner.
PARTS OF SPEECH
- NOUN: A noun is a word that names something, such as a person, place, thing, or idea. In a sentence, nouns can play the role of subject, direct object, indirect object, subject complement, object complement, appositive, or adjective. Example- Tiger, Chair, London, Aurora, etc.
- ADJECTIVES: Adjectives are words that describe the qualities or states of being of nouns. They can also describe the quantity of nouns. Example- Green, Big, Millions, etc.
- ARTICLES: Article is an adjective. Like adjectives, articles modify nouns. English has two articles: the and a/an. The is used to refer to specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. We call the definite article and a/an the indefinite article.
- DETERMINERS: A determiner is a word placed in front of a noun to specify a quantity. Example- These, That, etc.
- PRONOUNS: Pronouns make up a small subcategory of nouns. The distinguishing characteristic of pronouns is that they can be substituted for other nouns. Example- She, Her, etc.
- LEXICAL AND AUXILIARY VERBS: Auxiliary means to help or support something else, to act as a backup, and to be secondary to something more significant. Auxiliary verbs are often called helping verbs. ... Lexical means "relating to words." Lexical verbs are the main verbs in a phrase or sentence. Examples of auxiliary verbs are: may, be, was, is, had, has, has, could, would, can, did, might, etc. Examples of lexical verbs are: run, laugh, see, think, want, act, pull, walk, go, make, etc.
- ADVERBS: An adverb is a word that modifies (describes) a verb (he sings loudly), an adjective (very tall), another adverb (ended too quickly), or even a whole sentence (Fortunately, I had brought an umbrella). Adverbs often end in -ly, but some (such as fast) look exactly the same as their adjective counterparts. Example- Early: She arrived early for the meeting.
- PREPOSITIONS: Prepositions indicate relationships between other words in a sentence. Many prepositions tell you where something is or when something happened. The 4 kinds of prepositions look to identify the prepositions as, simple, compound, phrasal and participial and how they function as adjectives and adverbs in English sentences. Example- "in," "at," "on," "of," and "to."
- CONJUNCTIONS: Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases, or clauses together. I like cooking and eating, but I don't like washing dishes afterward. Example- because, nor, although, since, unless, while, where, etc.
- INTERJUNCTIONS: An interjection is a word or expression that occurs as an utterance on its own and expresses a spontaneous feeling or reaction. Example- nah, oops, phew, shucks, woops, etc.
