ENGLISH 10TH CLASS PARTS OF SPEECH

 DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH

There are many occasions in which we need to describe an event or action that happened, and very often that includes repeating what someone said. Such occasions can include a social situation as well as in a work email or presentation. In order to describe what people said there are two different types of speech – direct speech and indirect speech (or reported speech)

Reported Speech is also known as Direct and Indirect Speech or Narration. In Indirect Speech, we convey the speaker’s message in our own words. Thus, the message can be conveyed in 2 ways.

1. Direct Speech

2. Indirect Speech

Direct speech is known as repeating the exact words spoken and Indirect speech is known as reporting the words.

QUESTION TAGS 

We can add question tags like isn’t it?, can you? or didn’t they? to a statement to make it into a question. Question tags are more common in speaking than writing.

We often use question tags when we expect the listener to agree with our statement. In this case, when the statement is positive, we use a negative question tag.

Tag questions (or question tags) turn a statement into a question. They are often used for checking information that we think we know is true.

CLAUSES

A clause is a group of words that includes a subject and a verb.

A clause functions as an adjective, an adverb, or a noun.

A clause contrasts with a phrase, which does not contain a subject and a verb. The distinction between a clause and a phrase is clearer when you see them side by side:

A clause “a group of words containing a subject and predicate and functioning as a member of a complex or compound sentence.

PREPOSIONTS

Prepositions are words which begin prepositional phrases.

A prepositional phrase is a group of words containing a preposition, a noun or pronoun object of the preposition, and any modifiers of the object.

A preposition sits in front of (is “pre-positioned” before) its object.

1. Prepositions indicate relationships between other words in a sentence.

2. Many prepositions tell you where something is or when something happened.

3. Most prepositions have several definitions, so the meaning changes quite a bit in different contexts.

4. Ending a sentence with a preposition is not a grammatical error.

ARTICLES

What is an article? Basically, an article is an adjective. Like adjectives, articles modify nouns.

English has two articles: the and a/an. The is used to refer to specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. We call the the definite article and a/an the indefinite article.

the = definite article

a/an = indefinite article

For example, if I say, “Let’s read the book,” I mean a specific book. If I say, “Let’s read a book,” I mean any book rather than a specific book.
