And today you are going to learn very simple but very essential, which means important uh grammar lesson.

Oh, grammar.

It's terrible.

It's easy.

Um, and I am always amazed at the number of people who have been studying english for a long time and maybe our intermediate or higher level of english that don't know the basics.

Uh, vince Kraemer, now verb adverb and adjective.

And guess what?

Even some native english speakers.

No, I do.

I don't know this stuff.

So if you are seeing this for the first time, don't feel bad.

If it's new, just come along with me and learn, it'll be great.

So, um, the first word I've written the board is a noun.

Now a noun is, I always remember this, a person, a place or a thing.

Um, Sometimes a noun is capitalized, capitalized means that there's a big letter like a big M for mom or the city of Toronto.

They have a capital letter why Ronnie?

Because they are proper noun there.

So proper a proper noun just means it's a name of a person or a place and it must have big or capital letter.

So in a sentence at the beginning, if I put mom, I would put a capital letter every time I have the name of a city or a country being a proper noun, it has as a capital as well.

So be careful of that one.

So a person would be mom, a place would be Toronto can be a city.

It can be a town.

Village doesn't matter.

Um, and then the thing and anything really marker.

Anything you see that's the thing is a noun.

So we have lots of friends all the time.

No no no there's no there's no no no no no.

So person place or thing.

Remember a noun is a person a place or a thing you try.

A noun is yes person place or thing.

See that was easy.

Now a verb you might have studied in school.

The famous verb to be the verb to be.

It's a verb but a verb is an action word or a state of being.

So a lot of the times we get confused because we know the verb to be is a verb.

But when you think about it you're like, but it's not an action word.

It's okay.

B and have are also verbs but they're not an action verb.

But that's okay.

You don't have to follow the rules all the time.

No we don't don't worry about that.

So basically now person place thing, verb is an action word or state of being the verb to be or have and watch out for the congregation's right.

There is A.

M.

R.

With the verb to be and we also have or has.

Now if you need some help with those verbs you can check out other lessons on Ingrid dot com or on youtube on my channel and you can find those wonderful lessons too.

But let's move on to the next one Now.

This is the science of everything.

Oops.

The science of the sound.

So an adverb has the word verb in it.

So that's fun.

So I also remember it like this.

An adverb is going to describe a verb so it tells us how the action was done.

For example.

Slowly, fast, quietly, loudly.

Ronnie kicked the chair loudly.

Okay, we're talking about the verb.

So the adverb is always going to talk about the verb.

Well that makes sense.

Cool.

But then we have an adjective and we have many, many, many, many, many, many adjectives in english.

Um for example, color, purple shape, round size, big, small large adjectives are all around us.

And a lot of people get adverbs and adjectives confused but you don't have to because if an adverb describes a verb, what do you think an adjective does an adjective is going to describe?

I know.

So if I wanted to describe my mom, I can say mom, which is my noun.

The negatives of verb runs, how does she run is gonna be my adverb Mom runs fast.

So in this sentence, Mom, because as a person, Zanoun runs is a verb.

It's an action word and then fast describes how my mom runs.

Let's use an example of a sentence using an adjective.

We have the noun of toronto, Toronto is a city.

It's a noun?

It's a proper noun.

It has to have a capital and oh, where's the verb here?

I don't see an action word.

We don't have runs or jump or high.

Oh, be no have no.

But remember when you conjugating the verb to be, oh, if it's singular, we use is, so we say toronto is that's our verb.

And then big is an adjective.

It describes toronto.

So big is the adjective that describes the place.

What's your city?

Tell me an adjective that would describe your city.

Is it big?

Small?

Is it loud?

Is it quiet it boring?

Tell me about your city.

Um, another way that we use adjectives talk about color.

So for example, oh, hey guys, what's up?

Look at the cat.

So the cat is red.

I'm talking about the color of the cat and I can say the cat has.

So this is my verb has a long tail.

So let's look at these sentences.

And what we're gonna do is we're gonna find the noun, the verb, the adverb and the adjective if we can.

So let's look at this first sentence.

Oh no, the cat.

Oh, don't jump.

The cat jumped off the table.

He's okay.

It's okay, Mom.

Is what is it a noun, A verb?

An adverb or adjective.

Mom is a person.

So it's now runs is an action word.

It's a verb.

We usually put a V for verb and fast is going to explain how she runs.

So we're going to use here an adverb.

Toronto is a noun.

Toronto is verb big burgers and objective.

And here's another really important tidbit of information.

Usually when we have the verb to be, it's going to be followed by an adjective.

Toronto is big, the cat is red.

So in the next sentence, let's look at the noun, the verb and the adjective.

So it's your chance.

Please tell me in the sentence where the noun is in the sentence, The cat is big.

Remember a noun is a person, a place or a thing.

You good cat.

So cat is the noun and the verb it's going to be is.

And then we're talking about or describing the cat and we're talking about the color, the cat is red.

So red is going to be the adjective.

So cat is the noun is the verb and red is the adjective.

Hm.

We have another cat here.

What can you tell me about this cat?

Let's use an adjective, describe the cat.

I can say the cat is pink.

The cat is cute, so cute and adjective as well.

Let's look at this sentence.

This is yours.

You do this and you tell me the answer.

So I wanted you to tell me which is the noun which is the verb which is the adjective or the adverb.

So the cat has a long tail.

So a person.

Place or thing.

We're going to use cat as they are.

Now verb remember has is a form of have so that's a verb.

And then we're describing something we're describing that we're describing the cat's tail so long is our adjective and tail is a person a place or a thing.

It's a noun as well.

So you can have two nouns or two adjectives in a sentence.

That's okay, be creative.

Make a sentence.

So learning the basics of english grammar, a noun, person, place or thing, a verb, action word or state of being adverb describes the verb or an adjective describing the noun.

This was the most confusing will really really help you with your basic english grammar and even in advanced english grammar.

Very, very important.

Well, I'm off to go chase some kittens around.

I'll talk to you later.

Bye bye.
