“Ever since you first toddled into a school door, your teachers have been telling you that a noun is a person, place, thing or idea.”
Remember: • 1. A noun is a part of speech. • 2. Subjects and objects are parts of the sentence. • 3. Nouns function as subjects or objects. • 4. THEREFORE… Nouns = subjects or objects!
Example:The burrito gave me heartburn. Burrito and heartburn are the nouns in this sentence. Gave is the verb and burrito is the subject.
Remember… To find the subject of a sentence, locate the verb and ask who or what about the verb.
AND… you can add to the list various forms of “-ever” Whoever Whenever Whatever Wherever
Always keep in mind… Many of these words are flexible and can do different things in different sentences.
