The Suit – Part 1
Eight parts of speech help?
Okay listen to this sentence:
“Hey, what kinds of smoothies do you have?”
I thought the word “kinds” was an adjective but the teacher marked it as noun. Can anyone explain to me why it is a noun in the sentence above?
And here’s another one:
“The person behind the counter of a sandwich shop meets all sorts of people during the day’s work.”
I put the classified the word “sorts” as an adjective but the teacher marked it as a noun. Can someone explain to me why it is a noun?
if you reworded the question to a declarative sentence it would be:
Hey, you do have kinds of smoothies.
kinds would be a direct object for the verb do have.
what do you have? KINDS
as for the second sentence take out all the prepositional phrases and you have:
The person meets all sorts. sorts is a direct object as well
meets who or what? SORTS
hope i helped =)
