[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What the f are the 8 parts of speech? I have a phd and write research papers for living.[/quote] Of course you learned it at some point. noun, verb, adjective, adverb, pronoun, preposition, conjunction and interjection.[/quote] What about determiners (articles)? That would make nine, surely. I suspect that part of the reason they no longer test children on the "facts" of grammar is that the assessments were frequently wrong on the facts. I've seen some atrocious assessment questions that are intending to assess children's knowledge of grammatical metalanguage. [/quote] Articles (in our program) are taught as adjectives (modifiers).[/quote]
