In order to  complete this assignment, you may need to review the basic parts of speech. They include:

Nouns: Nouns denote one or more people, animals, place, things, or ideas. They can serve as subjects or objects of sentences or of prepositions. 

Pronouns: Pronouns stand in for nouns and have nouns as antecedents. They can function in any of the roles in a sentence that nouns can. 

Adjectives: Adjectives modify or describe nouns. Thus we can have a "beautiful flower" or a "fast runner."

Verbs: Verbs describe an action and are the main part of a sentence's predicate. All sentences require a finite verb. 

Adverbs: Adverbs can modify verbs or adjectives, e.g. "The young man graciously offered his seat to the elderly woman" or "extremely loud music".

• There was a huge basket in the dining hall.: The bolded word describes the noun "basket".


• This type of sport is very dangerous.: The bolded word describes the adjective dangerous. 


• 
  Give me your e-mail address.: The bolded word describes an action. 

Give me your e-mail address.
