IDENTIFICATION OF A PART OF SPEECH OF A WORD IN A SENTENCE --QUESTIONS FROM COMPETETIVE EXAMINATIONS

 HOW TO IDENTIFY A PART OF SPEECH OF A WORD IN A SENTNCE

Words perform different functions in a sentence. A part of speech of a word is identified according to its form, usage and structure in a sentence. Different parts of speech are Noun, Pronoun, Verb, Adjective, Adverb, Preposition, Conjunction and interjection.

A  word acquires its part of speech according to its use in the given sentence. The same word acts as different part of speech in different sentences according to its place and use. The same word can be a noun and verb, an adjective and an adverb or a conjunction and a preposition. Following sentences illustrate the point :

He carried a bag on his back.  (Noun)

He entered from the back door. (Adjective)

Please close the door. (Verb)

He is my close friend. (Adjective)

She sat close to her mother. (Adverb)

All were present there. (Pronoun)

All members were present there.(Adjective)

He lost his all in gambling. (Noun)

He feels well now. (Adverb)

His ball fell into the well. (Noun)

He drank well water. (Adjective)

Tears welled up in her eyes. (Verb)

I did not see him since Monday. (Preposition)

I did not see him since he left. (Conjunction)

They reached soon after. (Adverb)

She left after they arrived. (Conjunction)

She left after their arrival.(Preposition)

Although no specific rule can be assigned yet there are certain tips to identify different parts of speech. 

-- An article precedes a noun. i.e. a book, an apple.

-- A noun or pronoun is used as subject or object in a sentence.

--Nouns and Pronouns have their gender forms. 

--Nouns, Pronouns and Verbs have their numbers. 

--An adjective qualifies a noun or a pronoun and an adverb  qualifies a verb, adjective or adverb etc.

--Some words are used as both adjective and adverbs.

--Adjectives and Adverbs have their degree forms. 

-- A conjunction enjoins a sentence with a sentence, a clause  with a clause and a word with a word.

--An interjection expresses feelings of happiness, sorrow or fear etc.

--An interjection, if removed from the sentence, makes no change in the meaning of the sentence. 

--A preposition precedes a noun or a pronoun.

-- A preposition joins any part of speech with any other part

   of speech.

-- A gerund acts as a noun and is used as subject and object.

-- A participle (present and past) is used as an adjective and qualifies a noun or pronoun.

In Competitive examinations there are questions of sentences with words whose part of speech is to be identified out of the given options or otherwise.

ARTICLE - EXPLANATION , ITS USE IN A SENTENCE WITH EXAMPLES. & EXERCISE --- EXAMINATION QUESTIONS

USE OF AN ARTICLE IN A SENTENCE

----Explanation with Examples 

An article though apparently is a small part in a sentence yet it has an important role in providing a sensible meaning of the sentence. It cannot be just dubbed as trivial as it appears to be. So its proper use at an appropriate place in a sentence is very necessary.

An article is an adjective but it is not termed as an adjective. It is categorised under the head determiners. 

An article describes or introduces a noun and  thus it is placed before a noun. Despite its position, an article is not called an adjective. 

POSITION OF AN ARTICLE

--If an adjective precedes a noun, an article is placed before adjective.

 For example -
An   interesting story.

 In this sentence 'story' is a noun and 'interesting' an adjective and 'an' is an article.

--If an adverb precedes an adjective used prior to a noun the article is placed before the adverb. 

For example -

A very interesting story.

Story is a noun, interesting an adjective, very an adverb and an is an article.

-- In case of words like as, so,how, too etc. an article a or an is used between adjective and noun.

For example -

So large a tree, how difficult a sum, so nice a picture, as beautiful a child etc.

-- In case of words like All, both, half or double etc. the article 'the' is used after these words and before noun.

For example --

Both the girls, half the amount, all the boys etc.

But in case of whole or complete 'the' is used before these words.

For example- 

The whole luggage, The complete work etc.

-- In case of exclamatory sentences the article is used before adjective.

For example --

What a beautiful scene!

Such an interesting book!

What a lovely weather!

-- In case of comparative degree of an adjective article 'a' is used before it.

For example-

He is a better singer than a painter.

It is a worse situation than that  we feared.

An article is different from an adjective in the sense that it describes a noun but it does not describe a pronoun whereas an adjective describes both a noun and a pronoun.

There are two articles used --- A, An,  and The.

Articles A and An are used for singular noun which is not specific for example , a book or an apple.

Article The is used to express a specific noun as 'the book'. 'The' describes a particular book. This is clear in the following sentences.

There lived a rabbit in a forest. ........1

The rabbit lived in a burrow near a lion's den in the forest. .......2

In the sentence at Sr. no. 1 'a rabbit'  describes any single rabbit and a forest describes a single unspecified forest. 

But in the sentence 2 'the rabbit' and 'the forest' describe  about a particular rabbit and a particular forest respectively which are refered to in sentence no. 1.

A and An are  in a way shortened form of one and are used for single nouns. One acts as an adjective in a sentence. 

A and an articles are used for countable nouns.

For example :

I have a book.  It means any single book.

I have one book. It means a specified number one of book. 

Article The is used for a specific noun. It is used for singular as well as plural nouns. It is used for countable and uncountable nouns. 

For example :

He drank the water contained in the jug.

I read the book you gave me.

I read the books you gave me.

Application as well as omission of articles in a sentence is equally important. Just as an omission of  an article distorts the meaning of a sentence similarly unnecessary application of an article in a sentence also disturbs its meaning.

A noun used in a general sense does not take any article with it. 

For example : 

Man is mortal.

In this sentence the word man is used in general terms so carries no article. 

But in the following sentence,

I saw a man in the street.

 the word man describes any single unspecific man moving in the street.

The man I saw in the street is a shopkeeper.

In this sentence 'the man' describes about a particular man who is a shopkeeper and was seen by me in the street.

Here follow some sentences for explanation.

COMPOUND NOUN - CONCEPT, EXPLANATION WITH EXAMPLES. & EXERCISE --- EXAMINATION QUESTIONS

 A word expressing a thing, place, person, quality or state of condition, position or attitude is called a Noun.

In other words a noun is the name of a person, place,thing or a quality. It is generally formed of one word like book, crow or honesty etc.

 But sometimes it is formed of more than one words like Bookworm or Armchair etc. Book and worm separately are nouns and have their meanings but these two combined also form a noun which has a different meaning.

A compound noun is also of three words  like 

Father - in - law.

Besides a noun with another noun, a compound noun is formed of a verb, an adjective and a preposition with a noun.

A compound noun is formed of  :-

Noun +Noun      

Bathroom, Watermark

Adjective + Noun

Roundtable, Prime- Minister.

Verb + Noun

Playing card,  Moving cart.

Preposition + Noun

Underworld, Overtime.

There is no specific way of writing a compound noun. It can be in either way, sometimes by adding hyphen between two words or without a hyphen in between. 

In case of a noun with more than two words there is a hyphen between words.

For example :

Step-son, take-away, Mother-in-law, 

 Classroom, Blackboard. 

But while writing, a

 particular method has to be observed. 

For example 

In case of Blackboard and Black board:

These two words have different meanings. 

Black Board means any board which is black in colour. But in case of Blackboard it is a board black in colour which a teacher uses for teaching students. Similarly take away written separately means to snatch away. But take-away has a particular mode of sending things out of the premises where these are stored or are lying. It also means some message. 

A particular care has to be taken while changing these compound nouns from singular to plural or vice versa. Of the two or three words forming a compound noun the word giving the sense of a noun or the doer has to be changed. 

As in case of Mother-in-law it is mother the main word making a noun and not in-law. So plural will be of mother and not in-law. Its plural will be Mothers - in - law.

 

But in case of the word only in-law, it will be in-laws.

Some compound words worth studying.

Error Spotting (Verb - Proper Position of Verb in a Sentence)- SENTENCES OF COMPETITIVE EXAMINATION QUESTIONS PATTERN

 

ERROR SPOTTING --- Proper Placing of a verb in a Sentence

A verb has an important place in a sentence. It is necessary that an appropriate form of a verb is used at a proper place in a sentence. It is because other words like subject, object or adverb etc.  in the sentence relate to a verb in the sentence. 

The importance of a verb can be judged from the fact that if one is to write a sentence of one word, that sentence  is of a verb. For example, 'Go' is a single word that carries all the meaning in itself and forms a sentence in imperative form.  

In competitive examinations, there are questions of errors relating to the incorrect form or position of a verb in a sentence.

Here follow some illustrations of it.

In negative or interrogative sentences, there is an error in the use of a singular first form of the verb with do or does.

 Similarly. with did the second form of the verb is used. e.g.

He does not goes to school.

Does he goes to school?

He did not went to school.

Did he went to school?

Inappropriate use of modal verbs with main verbs. 

e.g. He has went with his brother. 

Some verbs like need and dare are used both as a modal verb and main verb. In their cases, s or es and infinitive are not used with them when these are used as a modal verb.

There are errors of  --

-- the use of an abstract noun in place of a verb, 

-- the use of inversion of a verb in the case of a simple assertive sentence.

-- the  use of a participle in place of a verb.

-- incorrect use of a form of a verb of Voice or Narration in a sentence.

For example 

He told that he is on leave that day.

This poem is wrote by a famous poet.

--incorrect use of not with a phrasal verb. Words of a phrasal verb are not separated. For example - 

He told me not to go out in rain. 

It is wrong to say 

He told me to not go out in rain. 

These errors require to be identified for their  rectification. 

Here follow some sentences with such errors for understanding and error rectification.

 TEST EXERCISE

1. The father could not understand why was his daughter so sad.

2. On entering the room, I found all the books lie on the floor.

3. I would have called him if I had saw him there.

4. You should be presented this box to him.

5. He need to understand your problems.

6. You may need hire a taxi to reach your destination.

  ANSWERS 

1. Inversion in this sentence, 'why was his daughter' is incorrect. It being an assertive sentence, this part should be 'why his daughter was.....' .

2. In this sentence, 'I' is subject, 'found' is its verb, and 'all the books object. Lie is a verb without any subject. It describes the noun 'books' but the verb cannot describe a noun it should be an adjective, it should be a participle as an adjective 'lying'.

3. This is a conditional sentence, In the conditional part of a sentence, third form of verb is used with 'had' So it should be '...if I had seen him..' 

4. This sentence with the verb 'be presented' is in passive form. But is should be in active form. So it is 'You should present this box to him'. 

5. Need in this sentence is a modal verb like should, can or would etc. With a modal verb an infinitive is not used. It is 'He need understand your problems.  

6. In this sentence, 'Need' is used as a main verb. 'May' is a helping verb. With main verb, need, an infinitive, 'to hire' is required.

This has reference to your editorial 'India holds its own' The Tribune March 24, 2022. India really really deserves appreciation for its approach in th currently on- going Russia Ukraine conflict turned war. Right from the first day of its independence, India has adopted a balanced policy towards the various sects of countries of the world. It has never provoked and helped any country to attack or bully any other country. It is because it never wanted any war against any country nor does it want to usurp any part of any other country. 

India whereas respects its autonomy at the same time honours autonomy of each and every country of the world whether it is a small or big country. It never wants any interference or intrusion by a country into other. It has always treated  its friends and foes equally keeping in view humanitarian interest of the people of the country.

The USA that is calling India 'Shaky' should realise that India is not shaky but is 'Steady' in its relation with other countries. USA should recall relations between two countries when it brought its seventh fleet in India's waters. Then also India showed it's patience and never indulged in any war against any country. It should realise how India has improved its relations with USA and has always gone a step ahead in helping them. India is known for making good relations with warring  countries whether those be Iran- Iraq, Israel- Egypt, or even USA- China.

It is because India has no enmity against any country and it has no intention to provoke any country against any other country. It has always gone to help a country keeping in view the interest of people of that country. The live example of Afganistan should open eyes of the USA where it used its arms and military to bring peace but failed because its intention was not so pure and pious but India always found new ways and methods to help people of that country with its services,food and goods backed by its good intentions behind its actions. USA should instead emulate India and come forward with India to bring peace in that area because innocent people should be saved whether they are in Ukraine or Afganistan. A country should help other country with an intention for development of its people and area and not use as a tool against any other country as USA has been doing in Pakistan against India.
