- Hello everyone. And welcome back to English with Lucy.
Today we are going back to basics.
We are looking at the building blocks of spoken English.
I'm going to be talking to you
about the eight parts of speech.
Every single word you say has a role within a sentence.
Every single word is a part of speech.
Today we're going to be breaking it down
and looking at each one.
It makes up nearly everything that we say in English.
So we might as well get it right from the very beginning.
As always there is a free PDF that goes with today's lesson.
It's got everything we're going to talk about today
plus a quiz,
I know you love quizzes to test your learning.

In my opinion, the most important nouns.
These are the bread and butter of our speech,
which is ironic,
because bread and butter are both nouns.
A noun is something that name something,
such as a person, an idea or a thing.
In a sentence, a noun can play the role of a subject,
an indirect object, a direct object,
a subject compliment, an object compliment,
and a positive or an adjective.
There are so many different types of nouns.
They can name people such as a girl, Taylor Swift, my dad.
They can name a place, a mountain, Spain, the kitchen.
They can also name things, activities, concepts, processes,
ideas, such as love, rugby, shorts, knowledge.
I actually have a video on the 100 most important nouns
in British English.
I will link to that video in the description box.
It's quite a good one
if you want to quickly acquire a lot of vocabulary.
Let's move on to the second part of speech: pronouns.
A pronoun is a word that's used instead of a noun
or a noun phrase.
You use them when the reader or listener
already knows the specific noun that you're referring to.
If I tell a story, for example, about my fiancee William,
it will get so boring and repetitive
if I just say the noun William, over and over again.
Let's try, let's see how it sounds.
William is my fiance. William is extremely tall.
William told me that William wants to marry me. (laughs)
It makes me sound obsessed and weird to be honest,
and very repetitive.
Let's try it with a lovely pronoun instead.
William is my fiance. He's very tall.
He told me he wants to marry me.
It sounds a little better,
