I was 24 years old when I learned that the indefinite article you used was dependent on whether the noun it preceded started with a vowel. I'm a native English speaker..

Here's brief explanations of the eight parts of speech in English:

1. **Noun:** A word that represents a person, place, thing, or idea. Example: dog, city, happiness.

2. **Pronoun:** A word that takes the place of a noun. Example: he, she, it, they.

3. **Verb:** A word that expresses action, occurrence, or a state of being. Example: run, think, is.

4. **Adjective:** A word that describes or modifies a noun or pronoun. Example: red, happy, tall.

5. **Adverb:** A word that describes or modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb. Example: quickly, very, well.

6. **Preposition:** A word that shows the relationship between a noun (or pronoun) and another word in the sentence. Example: in, on, under.

7. **Conjunction:** A word that connects words, phrases, or clauses. Example: and, but, or.

8. **Interjection:** A word or phrase used to express strong emotion. Example: Wow! Ouch! Hey!

Understanding these parts of speech helps in constructing grammatically correct and meaningful sentences.

Hello Gill, what a wonderful lesson this is. I was never too good in Grammar and so these lessons are so good for me as a revision session. Thank you so much!

[Lexie_Greer]

Thank you, Gill, so very much for this well-taught lesson! Taught well, learned well, isn't it? 🙂 I adore the way you pronounce every sound! It seems like younger people have been striving to squeeze volumes of information into every single second of the speaking process, thus firing words rapidly that it's hardly ever possible to make out the very sense of whatever is being spoken of! 🤷‍♂️ And I mean all nations, not English-speaking community only 🙂. You keep traditions of good old manners in spoken language. It soothes my mind and improves my English! 👍
