  4. AdjectiveA word that is used to describe a noun or pronoun. • “You may look around and see two groups here: white collar, blue collar. But I don’t see it that way, and you know why not? Because I am collar-blind.” Michael Scott

  5. VerbA word that indicates an action, being or state or being. • “I enjoy having breakfast in bed. I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me. And since I don't have a butler, I have to do it myself. So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman grill. Then I go to sleep. When I wake up, I plug in the grill. I go back to sleep again. Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon. It is delicious, it's good for me, it's the perfect way to start the day.” Michael Scott • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEVqz_WbuCY
