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 =)
