Every name is called a noun,
As field and fountain, street and town;
In place of noun the pronoun stands
As he and she can clap their hands;
The adjective describes a thing,
As magic wand and bridal ring;
![Page 23: Part of speech](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a3f01b1a28ab29168b467b/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The verb means action, something done.
To read, to write, to jump, to run;
How things are done, the adverbs tell,
As quickly, slowly, badly, well;
The preposition shows relation,
As in the street, or at the station;
![Page 24: Part of speech](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022052602/55a3f01b1a28ab29168b467b/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Conjunctions join, in many ways,
Sentences, words, or phrase and
phrase;
The interjection cries out, 'Hark!
I need an exclamation mark!'
