Nouns are divided into 2 groups, namely:
1) Concrete Nouns

that can be captured with the five senses, namely concrete
objects or can be said to be real objects.
Concrete Nouns are divided into 5 groups, namely:
a) Common Nouns, Namely nouns that indicate the
type, class of objects, places and so on. Example:
Car, Girl,Bridge, Nitrogen, Metal and Tv
b) Proper Nouns, Namely the names of people, places
and so on that are specific to him only. Proper
Nouns always start with a capital letter. Example:
Jakarta, Asia, Medan, Agnes Monica

 c) Collective Nouns, In the form of a collection of
humans (people), animals (animals) and an object
(things). Certain words are usually or always used
to make collective nouns. Example: Class, Team,
Jury, Cabinet (of ministers), boy band.

of an object that occurs by itself and is not man-
made. Example: gold, Nitrogen, silver, plant.

more words. Example: Mother-in-law, Board of
members.

place, time and way of an activity or event that occurs.

etc.
Adverbs are also defined as words that describe verbs, adjectives,
prepositions and other words except for nouns and pronouns.

3. Adverb of Manner.

situation or event is. Usually explains/modifies the
adjective/adjective or the adverb itself
5. Adverbs of Frequency.

action or event is done. There are 2 kinds:
1. adverb of quantity.
Usually to determine the adverb of quantity we ask
questions with the word "how often".

Usually to determine the adverb of number we ask
questions with the word "how many times" (how

in a sentence. The words are the same as an interrogative
adverb, the difference is only in its position, that is, a
relative adverb is usually placed in the middle of a sentence
(between two clauses), while an interrogative adverb is at
the beginning of a sentence.

C. Number
a. Cardinal Number
A cardinal number is a number that says how much of something
there is, such as one, two, three, four, five.
a) Cardinal Number answers the question “How Many?”
Example:Here are five coins, there are 5 students
It has no fractions or decimals, as it is only used for
counting.
b) Ordinal Numbers.
An Sequence Number is a number that tells the position of
something in the list. 1, 2, 3, 4, etc 5
Example:In “apple, banana, carrot” the word “banana” is 2
Easy to remember: "ordinal" tells you what "order" things
go in nominal Numbers
c) Nominal Numbers
Nominal Number is a number used only as a name, or to
identify something (not as an actual value or position)
example:
• the number behind the football player (“10”)
• A postal code (“91210”)
• Model number (“380”)
D. Question
a. Question Tags
Question tags are short questions that are included at the end of a
sentence to create questions.
b. Function
Question tags have a main purpose, namely to strengthen the
expected information and to ask for information that is not
expected.
These two goals can be distinguished based on the intonation of
pronunciation that we use – if the voice is low it means the

8
 question is asking the expected information – if the voice is raised
it means really asking a question.
c. Question Word
Question words with Examples

Question word Example

Where Where do you house?
Who Who are you?
When When do you get up?
What What are you doing?
Why Why do you stupid?
Whose Whose book is this?
Which Which bus do you take to school?
How How old are you?
E. Adjective
a. Definition of adjective
Adjective is an adjective or a state word, a word that describes a
noun. For example: the words of a book, can be added to its nature.
For example, new, red, good, and others. In Indonesian, if the word
book is added, it can become a new book, red, good is called an
adjective.
1) Epitnet adjective, In English, adjectives come before nouns.
For example: yellow pen, new pen.
2) Predicative adjective, Adjectives that come after the main
sentence and to be (am, is, are) are called predicative
adjectives. Example : I am ill, she is beautiful, He is clever,
my brother is handsome. n the sentence above ill, beautiful,
clever, handsome, functions as a predicate or sentence
designation. Adjectives that function as predicate adjectives
are located after to be.
