I need help with these two essay questions! 11. List eight parts of speech and give an example of each. 12. Briefly describe Poe's requirements for the short story genre.

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

I don't need the whole answer, I just need a general idea of what the answer is...

OpenStudy (wonderlover15):

The eight parts of speech are noun, verb, adverb, adjective, pronoun, proposition, conjunction, and interjection. Propositions link nouns to words, conjunctions join a clause, and interjections use one word with exclamation point like "Ouch!" or "Oh!".

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Oh okay! That's good to know. What are pronouns though?

OpenStudy (shadydare):

pronouns are like specific things ex: She=noun-----Lizzie=Pro-noun Store=noun-----Walmart=Pro-noun

OpenStudy (shadydare):

Get It??

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Ohh yep, I remember now. Thank you! Does anyone know anything about the second question though? :/

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Also, you said pronouns were nouns. It's the other way around... Example: "She" is a pronoun, but "Sally" is a noun.

OpenStudy (shadydare):

yes, look it up on google: poe's requirements on writing a short story genre and go to the 3rd one down

OpenStudy (dinorap1):

Oh okay. Thank you! :)
