The part of speech is a category to which a word is assigned according to its syntactic functions. In English the main parts of speech are noun, pronoun, adjective, determiner, verb, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection.
A conjunction is a word like 'if' 'but' or 'and' which is used to connect sentences or clauses together.
Subordinating conjunctions are conjunctions that are used at the beginning of subordinate clauses. Some examples of these conjunctions are: although, after, before, because, how, if, once, since, so that, until, unless, when etc.
Coordinating conjunctions always connect phrases, words, and clauses. They are: for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
A preposition is one of the most exciting parts of grammar. A preposition is used to describe the location of something in relation to something else.
Compound preposition consists of two or more words.
When a preposition consists of one word it is called single or simple preposition.
An adjective is a word that's used to describe a specific noun and to provide more detail to the listener.
Expresses a comparison between two entities or groups of entities in quality or degree.
A verb is an action word or 'doing' word that signifies movement in some way.
