Grammar and Vocabulary

Introduction

Grammar and vocabulary are like building blocks that help us construct sentences and convey our thoughts clearly in English.

Grammar

Parts of Speech

  • Noun: A person, place, thing, or idea.
    Example: Mary (person), school (place), book (thing), love (idea).
  • Verb: Action words that show what someone or something is doing.
    Example: Run, eat, read, sleep.
  • Adjective: Words that describe nouns by giving more information about them.
    Example: Beautiful, tall, delicious.

Vocabulary

Synonyms and Antonyms

  • Synonyms: Words that have similar meanings.
    Example: Happy and joyful are synonyms as they both mean feeling good.
  • Antonyms: Words that have opposite meanings.
    Example: Hot and cold are antonyms because they mean opposite temperatures.
