In Spanish grammar, the parts of speech (partes de la oración) are the building blocks for constructing sentences. Here’s a brief overview:
  • Nouns (Sustantivos): Words that name people, places, things, or ideas. They have gender (masculine or feminine) and number (singular or plural).
  • Verbs (Verbos): Words that express actions, states, or occurrences. Verbs are conjugated to reflect tense, mood, person, and number.
  • Adjectives (Adjetivos): Words that describe or modify nouns, agreeing in gender and number with the noun they describe.
  • Adverbs (Adverbios): Words that modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, often indicating manner, place, time, or degree.
  • Pronouns (Pronombres): Words that replace nouns to avoid repetition, including subject, object, reflexive, and relative pronouns.
  • Prepositions (Preposiciones): Words that show relationships between nouns or pronouns and other words in the sentence, often indicating direction, location, or time.
  • Conjunctions (Conjunciones): Words that connect words, phrases, or clauses, such as y (and), pero (but), and o (or).
  • Interjections (Interjecciones): Words or expressions that convey emotion or exclamation, like ¡hola! (hello!) or ¡ay! (ouch!).
Understanding these parts of speech and how they interact is key to mastering Spanish grammar and building fluency.
