Parts of Speech
- Adjectives describe nouns and pronouns, providing more information about their qualities or characteristics.
Conjunctions
- Conjunctions join words, phrases, or clauses together in a sentence, connecting ideas and forming relationships between them.
Capitalization Rules
- Proper nouns, such as titles, professions, or specific individuals, should be capitalized; for example, "Teacher" is capitalized because it is a title or profession.
- Common nouns, such as food items, should not be capitalized; for example, "tacos" is not capitalized because it is a general term for a type of food.
Pronouns
- Pronouns replace nouns in a sentence, taking their place to avoid repetition and provide clarity, such as "he" or "she" instead of a person's name.
