 Part of Speech
O The parts of speech explain how a word is
used in a sentence.
O There are eight main parts of speech (also
known as word classes): nouns, pronouns,
adjectives, verbs, adverbs, prepositions,
conjunctions and interjections.
 Part of Speech
1. Noun
A noun is the name of a person, place, thing or
idea.
O Example : Some marine invertebrate
animals construct their shells or hard parts
by extracting calcium and carbonate ions
from seawater.
2. Pronoun
A pronoun is used in place of a noun or noun
phrase to avoid repetition.
O Example : Apart from their scientific
significance, the sedimentary rocks have
been a controlling factor in the development
of industry, society, and culture
3. Adjective
An adjective describes, modifies or gives more
information about a noun or pronoun.
O Example : The gravel is usually smooth and
well rounded, suggesting the grains were
rounded during transport.
4. Verb
A verb shows an action or state of being. A
verb shows what someone or something is
doing.
O Example : Conglomerate accumulates today
at the bases of many mountain ranges, in
stream channels, and on some beaches.
5. Adverb
An adverb describes a verb, an adjective or
another adverb. It tells how, where, when, how
often or to what extent. Many adverbs end in –
LY.
O Example : Limestone is by far the most
abundant chemically precipitated rock
6. Preposition
A preposition shows the relationship of a noun
or pronoun to another word. They can indicate
time, place, or relationship.
O Example : After the organisms die, the shells
accumulate on the seafloor.
7. Conjuction
A conjunction joins two words, ideas, phrases
or clauses together in a sentence and shows
how they are connected.
O Example : The constituents of sedimentary
rocks are derived from the mechanical
breakdown and chemical decay of
preexisting rocks.
8. Interjection
An interjection is a word or phrase that
expresses a strong feeling or emotion. It is a
short exclamation.
Example : Congrats! You finally got your
Master’s degree.
 Derivative Words
O Derivatives are words that are derived from
other words,called rootwords. Derivation is the
process of creating a new word out of an old
word, usually by adding a prefix or a suffix.
O Example :
1.They are frequently deposited in river floodplains
and deltas and other shallow marine settings.
2.Sediment is moved largely in suspension.
3. It has the simple composition SiO2 and is
distinguished by its hardness, its conchoidal
fracture, and its glassy luster.
 Clause
A clause is a group of words containing a
subject and verb. An independent clause is a
simple sentence. It can stand on its own.
A dependent clause cannot stand on its own.
Dependent clauses often begin with such words
as although, since, if, when, and because.
O Example :
1. Sedimentary rocks are rare in the Canadian
shield(Independent Clause)
2. They are frequently deposited in river
floodplains (Independent Clause)
3. When exposed at the surface,.. (Dependent
Clause)
4. Although the record is far from complete,..
(Dependent Clause)
 Phrase
O A phrase is a group of words without a
subject-verb component, used as a single
part of speech.
O Example :
1. the most abundant sedimentary rocks
2. usually soft
3. With at least a thin layer of sediment
4. frequently deposited in river floodplains
