How can we identify a noun in a sentence?

To identify a noun, check if it is a variable word and place a determiner (such as 'el', 'la', 'un', 'una') in front of it. For example, 'niña' (girl) and 'caballo' (horse) are nouns.

What is a determiner and how can it be recognized?

A determiner is a word that comes before a noun to specify or define it. It is variable, and you can place a noun after it. For example, 'mi' (my) and 'un' (a) are determiners, as in 'mi casa' (my house) or 'un perro' (a dog).

How can you identify an adjective in a sentence?

To identify an adjective, check if it is a variable word that can change in gender and number, and ask 'how is' or 'what is' about the noun it modifies. For example, 'guapa' (beautiful) can change to 'guapo', 'guapas', 'guapos' and answers the question 'How is she?'

What are verbs, and how can we identify them?

Verbs express actions or states and can be identified by checking if they are variable words that can be conjugated in different tenses. For example, 'cantar' (to sing) can change to 'canto', 'canta', etc.

What is a pronoun, and how is it recognized in a sentence?

A pronoun replaces a noun in a sentence. It can be identified by checking if it is a variable word that can be replaced by a name. For example, 'ella' (she) can replace 'María', as in 'Ella tiene 8 años'.

What is the role of an adverb in a sentence?

An adverb modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb to provide more information about the circumstances of an action, such as time, place, or manner. It is invariable and does not change in gender or number. For example, 'hoy' (today) is an adverb of time.

What is the function of a preposition, and can you provide an example?

A preposition links nouns or pronouns to other words in the sentence. It can be recognized by checking if it links two elements and is invariable. For example, 'a' in 'Voy a la estación' (I am going to the station) is a preposition.

What is an interjection, and how can we identify one?

An interjection expresses strong emotions like joy, pain, surprise, or anger. It is invariable and often appears between exclamation marks. For example, '¡Ay!' expresses pain and is an interjection.
