College Entrance Exam Reviewer ( Day 5 ) Brought to you by  LANGUAGE PROFICIENCY MODULE English NOUNS Nouns are words that refer to an entity, quality, state, action or concept. Entity Quality State Action Concept Student Beauty Hopefulness Writing Hope Table Cowardice Brokenness To write Religion Thor Effervescence Immateriality Tackle Feasibility Carlito syrichta Electronegativity Gaseousness Layup (basketball) Entropy Nouns are very basic words in a language. At a bazaar, people can point at a product, the seller can give a name, and an understanding can be made. Correct use of nouns can simplify conversations; they ensure that all parties understand each other in the same way. If someone says “that dog with a funny face and that usually has white spots underneath its belly,” would you understand that that person was trying to describe a boxer (the dog breed)? Wouldn’t it be inconvenient and confusing to say “leap from below and use one hand to lay the ball near the basket to make a two-point shot attempt” every time you wanted a teammate to do a layup? Choose nouns for correctness and clarity; learn proper diction from a dictionary. Nouns as a Subject You may have seen a baby point at random things and name them. “Car! Tree! Square!” You may have also been annoyed because in your mind you were asking, “And so what about them?!” This is why in a basic sentence, there is a subject and a predicate answering the question “so what about it.” Martin is a boy. The pie is sweet. Dogs bark. Nouns as a Direct Object Direct objects are words denoting the goal or the result of the action of a verb. Maurice punched the tree. For Mario and Marc, drawing cartoons is easy. Marina hates painting her fingernails. Possessive Nouns Possessive nouns show ownership. Usually, common nouns that do not refer to people do not have possessive forms since they cannot own anything. Note that possessive nouns are different from adjectives. Hulk cannot carry Thor’s (hammer). Ron’s (wand) broke. His (performance) was scandalous. 0 The legs of the table are rusty. He is as mysterious as the dark side of the moon. PRONOUNS Pronouns substitute nouns or other pronouns. х I thought I lost the Hunger Games book that my friend lent me, but I found the Hunger Games book that my friend lent me in my backpack. ✓ I thought I lost the Hunger Games book that my friend lent me, but I found it in my backpack. Some nouns need to be reused in other clauses, but inventing a new name for them will just cause confusion. To simplify things, pronouns substitute nouns and other pronouns. Subject Pronouns Object Pronouns Possessive Pronouns I, It, She, You Me, It, Her, You Mine, Yours, His, Hers, Ours, Theirs, You, We, He, They You, Us, Him, Them Whose He cannot carry Thor’s hammer. Hulk cannot carry it. Hulk cannot carry his. Intensive Pronouns Intensive pronouns (also called emphatic) end with self or selves and emphasize (intensify) a noun or another pronoun. Instructor himself ordered this product. We did all the work ourselves. Demonstrative Pronouns Demonstrative pronouns point out specific entities, places, things or ideas. Examples are this, that, these, and those. That is his book. I want to exchange this for that and these for those. This is an excellent idea. Determine if the pronouns are used as subject, object, or possessive. Bob and I love watching them skateboard. It hurt itself in its own confusion. That is all they ever wanted from John and me. Indefinite pronouns Indefinite pronouns not substitute for specific nouns but function themselves as nouns. Examples are everybody, anybody, somebody, all, each, every, some, none, and one. Each of the boys must finish his job by the end of the day. If anybody wants my position, he can have it. Subject-verb relationship in complex sentences, compound sentences, complex-compound sentences, and sentences with prepositional phrases, time markers, appositives and other parts of speech Each clause has a subject and predicate. All rules hold in every clause. (Subjects are underlined. Verbs are in bold. Objects are in normal font.) When I was young, I wanted to be famous, so I wrote that script. I am sure our noise level matched that on the floor above us. Therapeutic interventions that incorporate training in mindfulness meditation have become increasingly popular, but to date little is known about neural mechanisms associated with these interventions. ADJECTIVES and ADVERBS Adjectives indicate the quality of a noun. Adverbs indicate the quality of a verb, adjective, or other adverbs. (Adjectives are in bold. Adverbs are highlighted.) I love spending time in my mother’s garden because the flowers smell sweet. The neighbors have a five-months-old baby boy. Most of us feel far removed from outer space, watching from the sidelines as the space agency shines a light on our mysterious universe.

Verbs are in bold.) Rule 1 Singular subjects need singular verbs; plural subjects need plural verbs Juan dances. She dances ballet. Students dance hip-hop at the auditorium. The children dance to Thriller every Friday. Last Saturday, they danced barefoot in front of the audience. My professor danced the Thai Sri-Nuan and the Burmese Kinnara to prove her point about the similarities of traditional dances of geographically close countries. Rule 2 Compound nouns require plural verbs The moon and stars are very pretty tonight. Both the book and pen are expensive. Kenan and Kel are going to ask two girls out to the movies. Rule 3 Nouns in plural form but singular in meaning need a singular verb. Some nouns are always plural and always need plural verbs. The news is devastating.

To lose something, to realize that it will never return, is the mark of adulthood. Rule 5 When the words or, nor, either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also joins the parts of a compound subject, the verb should be singular when the parts are singular; but it should be plural if both parts are plural. Otherwise, if the parts connected differ in number, the verb agrees with the nearer subject part. Neither the hammer nor the nail was found. Either the students or the teachers were to blame. Not only the horses but also the cow was slain. Rule 6 Each, everybody, everyone, anyone, anybody, someone, somebody, none, nobody, one, another, anything, either, neither, many a, are singular pronouns because these words talk about the single individual.  Each officer has the power to confiscate unnecessary items. Many a boy has volunteered to help. Every student is subjected to the rules of the handbook. Every boy and girl in the class was amazed. Every day is a new day. Everyday everybody who’s anybody is living in fear because of the war. None, neither soldier nor civilian, was found underneath the rubble. Rule 7 Many is plural, and much is singular. Many say that the Math exam was hard. Much is left undone. Rule 8 Some pronouns such as all, none and some are singular or plural depending on what they’re referring to. Some of the beads are missing. Some of the water is gone. Rule 9 The expression “the number” requires a singular verb while “a number” requires a plural verb. This is because “the number” is an exact number while “a number” is an estimate. The number of the new students is twenty- five. A number of officials were against the decision. Rule 10 Fractions take a singular verb if the object of the OF-phrase that follows is singular, if not, then it is plural One-fourth of the students are outside. One-half of the cake was eaten. Rule 11 A collective noun requires a singular verb when the group is thought of as a unit, but it requires a plural verb if individuals composing the group are acting separately. The jury were discussing their views on the testimony. The audience was silent. The pieces of homework that the teachers assigned to us were too much for just a weekend. Rule 12 The verb ties with a relative pronoun (what, who, whom, when, which, that) used as a subject; the relative pronoun ties with the number of the person of its antecedent. He is one of the students who were arrested during the protest. She is one of the most vocal girls who are protesting. It was when Napoleon wasted resources maintaining control in Spain that the decline of the French began. Rule 13 There is / there was precedes a singular noun. There are / there were is followed by a plural noun There were many guests at the party. There was dancing all night. Rule 14 Verbs in a compound predicate follow the number of the same subject they describe. He knocks people down and breaks their spirit into pieces. This upbeat album won several international awards and is Charles’s favorite CD. Rule 15 Match subjects with their corresponding verbs.
