 Chapter​ ​1​ ​:​ ​Grammar​ ​and​ ​questions

Sentences

Sentences​ ​are​ ​made​ ​of​ ​two​ ​parts:​ ​the​ ​subject​ ​and​ ​the​ ​predicate​ ​The​ ​subject​ ​is​ ​the​ ​person​ ​or​ ​thing​ ​that​ ​acts
or​ ​is​ ​described​ ​in​ ​the​ ​sentence.​ ​The​ ​predicate,​ ​on​ ​the​ ​other​ ​hand,​ ​is​ ​that​ ​action​ ​or​ ​description.​ ​Complete
sentences​ ​need​ ​both​ ​the​ ​subject​ ​and​ ​the​ ​predicate​.

Clauses

Sentences​ ​can​ ​be​ ​broken​ ​down​ ​into​ ​clauses.

For​ ​example​:​ ​The​ ​boy​ ​is​ ​going​ ​to​ ​the​ ​school,​ ​and​ ​he​ ​is​ ​going​ ​to​ ​eat​ ​there.

This is a complete sentence composed of two clauses. There are mainly two types of clauses: independent
clauses​ ​and​ ​subordinate​ ​clauses.

Independent clauses act as complete sentences, while subordinate clauses cannot stand alone and need

another​ ​clause​ ​to​ ​complete​ ​their​ ​meaning.​ ​For​ ​example:

Independent​ ​clause​ ​example:​ ​The​ ​boy​ ​went​ ​to​ ​the​ ​school.

Subordinate​ ​clause​ ​example:​ ​After​ ​the​ ​boy​ ​went​ ​to​ ​the​ ​school

Phrases

● A​ ​group​ ​of​ ​two​ ​or​ ​more​ ​grammatically​ ​linked​ ​words​ ​that​ ​do​ ​not​ ​have​ ​subject​ ​and​ ​predicate​ ​is​ ​a
phrase.
● Example​ ​of​ ​a​ ​complete​ ​sentence:​ ​The​ ​girl​ ​is​ ​at​ ​home,​ ​and​ ​tomorrow​ ​she​ ​is​ ​going​ ​to​ ​the
amusement​ ​park.
● Example​ ​of​ ​a​ ​clause:​ ​The​ ​girl​ ​is​ ​at​ ​home
● Example​ ​of​ ​a​ ​phrase:​ ​The​ ​girl
● You​ ​can​ ​see​ ​that​ ​“the​ ​girl”​ ​is​ ​a​ ​phrase​ ​located​ ​in​ ​the​ ​first​ ​clause​ ​of​ ​the​ ​complete​ ​sentence​ ​above.
● Phrases​ ​act​ ​like​ ​parts​ ​of​ ​speech​ ​inside​ ​clauses.​ ​That​ ​is,​ ​they​ ​can​ ​act​ ​as​ ​nouns,​ ​adjectives,​ ​adverbs
and​ ​so​ ​on.

Parts​ ​of​ ​Speech

A​ ​word​ ​is​ ​a​ ​“part​ ​of​ ​speech”​ ​only​ ​when​ ​it​ ​is​ ​used​ ​in​ ​a​ ​sentence.​ ​The​ ​function​ ​the​ ​word​ ​serves​ ​in​ ​a
sentence​ ​is​ ​what​ ​makes​ ​it​ ​whatever​ ​part​ ​of​ ​speech​ ​it​ ​is.

● For​ ​example,​ ​the​ ​word​ ​“run”​ ​can​ ​be​ ​used​ ​as​ ​more​ ​than​ ​one​ ​part​ ​of​ ​speech:.
● Sammy​ ​hit​ ​a​ ​home​ ​run.
● Run​ ​is​ ​a​ ​noun,​ ​direct​ ​object​ ​of​ ​hit.
● You​ ​mustn’t​ ​run​ ​near​ ​the​ ​swimming​ ​pool
● Run​ ​is​ ​a​ ​verb,​ ​part​ ​of​ ​the​ ​verb​ ​phrase​ ​must​ ​(not)​ ​run.

Traditional​ ​grammar​ ​classifies​ ​words​ ​based​ ​on​ ​eight​ ​parts​ ​of​ ​speech:​ ​the​ ​noun,​ ​the​ ​pronoun,​ ​the​ ​adjective,
the​ ​verb,​ ​the​ ​adverb,​ ​the​ ​preposition,​ ​the​ ​conjunction,​ ​and​ ​the​ ​interjection.​ ​We​ ​are​ ​going​ ​to​ ​cover​ ​them
individually​ ​below.

Nouns

A​ ​noun​ ​is​ ​a​ ​word​ ​used​ ​to​ ​describe​ ​a​ ​person,​ ​place,​ ​thing,​ ​event,​ ​idea,​ ​and​ ​so​ ​on.​ ​Nouns​ ​represent​ ​one​ ​of
the​ ​main​ ​elements​ ​of​ ​sentences,​ ​along​ ​with​ ​verbs,​ ​adjectives,​ ​prepositions​ ​and​ ​articles.Nouns​ ​usually
function​ ​as​ ​subjects​ ​or​ ​objects​ ​within​ ​sentences,​ ​although​ ​they​ ​can​ ​also​ ​act​ ​as​ ​adjectives​ ​and​ ​adverbs.

Here​ ​is​ ​a​ ​list​ ​with​ ​the​ ​different​ ​types​ ​of​ ​nouns:

1.​ ​Proper​ ​nouns

Used​ ​to​ ​describe​ ​a​ ​unique​ ​person​ ​or​ ​thing,​ ​proper​ ​nouns​ ​always​ ​start​ ​with​ ​a​ ​capital​ ​letter.​ ​Examples
include​ ​Mary,​ ​India,​ ​and​ ​Manchester​ ​United.

2.​ ​Common​ ​nouns

Brightwayz​ ​-​ ​MBA/Banking/CET/CAT/Staff​ ​Selection----Bhandup/Ghatkopar/Ulhasnagar/Vashi-----7710946409

Common​ ​nouns​ ​are​ ​used​ ​to​ ​describe​ ​persons​ ​or​ ​things​ ​in​ ​general.​ ​Examples​ ​include​ ​girl,​ ​country,​ ​and
team

3.​ ​Concrete​ ​nouns

Nouns​ ​that​ ​can​ ​be​ ​perceived​ ​through​ ​the​ ​five​ ​senses​ ​are​ ​called​ ​concrete​ ​nouns.​ ​Examples​ ​include​ ​ball,
rainbow​ ​and​ ​melody.

4.​ ​Abstract​ ​nouns

Nouns​ ​that​ ​cannot​ ​be​ ​perceived​ ​through​ ​the​ ​five​ ​senses​ ​are​ ​called​ ​abstract​ ​nouns.​ ​Examples​ ​include​ ​love,
courage,​ ​and​ ​childhood.

5.​ ​Countable​ ​noun​ ​Countable​ ​nouns​ ​can​ ​be​ ​counted.​ ​They​ ​also​ ​have​ ​both​ ​a​ ​singular​ ​and​ ​a​ ​plural​ ​form.
Examples​ ​include​ ​toys,​ ​children​ ​and​ ​books.

6.​ ​Non-countable​ ​nouns

These​ ​nouns​ ​(usually)​ ​can​ ​not​ ​be​ ​counted,​ ​and​ ​they​ ​don’t​ ​have​ ​a​ ​plural​ ​form.​ ​Examples​ ​include​ ​sympathy,
laughter​ ​and​ ​oxygen.

7.​ ​Collective​ ​nouns-​ ​Collective​ ​nouns​ ​are​ ​used​ ​to​ ​describe​ ​groups​ ​of​ ​things.​ ​Examples​ ​include​ ​flock,
committee​ ​and​ ​murder.

Plural​ ​Form​ ​of​ ​Nouns

Pronouns

Pronouns​ ​are​ ​used​ ​to​ ​replace​ ​nouns​ ​within​ ​sentences,​ ​making​ ​them​ ​less​ ​repetitive​ ​and​ ​mechanic.​ ​For
example,​ ​saying​ ​“Mary​ ​didn’t​ ​go​ ​to​ ​school​ ​because​ ​Mary​ ​was​ ​sick”​ ​doesn’t​ ​sound​ ​very​ ​good.​ ​Instead,​ ​if
you​ ​say​ ​“Mary​ ​didn’t​ ​go​ ​to​ ​school​ ​because​ ​she​ ​was​ ​sick”​ ​it​ ​will​ ​make​ ​the​ ​sentence​ ​flow​ ​better.

There​ ​are​ ​several​ ​types​ ​of​ ​pronouns,​ ​below​ ​you​ ​will​ ​find​ ​the​ ​most​ ​common​ ​ones:

1​.​ ​Subjective​ ​personal​ ​pronouns​.​ ​As​ ​the​ ​name​ ​implies,​ ​subjective​ ​pronouns​ ​act​ ​as​ ​subjects​ ​within
sentences.​ ​They​ ​are:​ ​I,​ ​you,​ ​he,​ ​she,​ ​we,​ ​they,​ ​and​ ​it.

Example:​ ​I​ ​am​ ​going​ ​to​ ​the​ ​bank​ ​while​ ​he​ ​is​ ​going​ ​to​ ​the​ ​market.

2​.​ ​Objective​ ​personal​ ​pronouns​.​ ​These​ ​pronouns​ ​act​ ​as​ ​the​ ​object​ ​of​ ​verbs​ ​within​ ​sentences.​ ​They​ ​are:
me,​ ​you,​ ​him,​ ​her,​ ​us,​ ​them​ ​and​ ​it.

Example:​ ​The​ ​ball​ ​was​ ​going​ ​to​ ​hit​ ​me​ ​in​ ​the​ ​face.

3.​ ​Possessive​ ​personal​ ​pronouns​.​ ​These​ ​pronouns​ ​are​ ​used​ ​to​ ​indicate​ ​possession,​ ​and​ ​they​ ​are​ ​placed
after​ ​the​ ​object​ ​in​ ​question​ ​(as​ ​opposed​ ​to​ ​possessive​ ​adjectives​ ​like​ ​my​ ​and​ ​your,​ ​which​ ​are​ ​placed​ ​before
the​ ​object).​ ​They​ ​are:​ ​mine,​ ​yours,​ ​his,​ ​hers,​ ​ours,​ ​theirs​ ​and​ ​its.

Example​ ​of​ ​possessive​ ​adjective:​ ​This​ ​is​ ​my​ ​car.

Example​ ​of​ ​possessive​ ​pronoun:​ ​This​ ​car​ ​is​ ​mine.

Questions:

Read​ ​each​ ​sentence​ ​to​ ​find​ ​out​ ​whether​ ​there​ ​is​ ​any​ ​grammatical​ ​error​ ​in​ ​it.​ ​The​ ​error,​ ​if​ ​any​ ​will
