Taco Bell, computer, London, and Sarah are nouns. *A VERB is an action word. Walk, talk, and eat are examples of verb. *An ADJECTIVE is a word, phrase, or clause that specifies, limits, or modifies nouns or pronouns. Pretty, beautiful, green, hard, and lucky are examples of adjectives. *An ADVERB is a word, phrase, or clause that modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb. Carefully, helpfully, and friendly are examples of adverbs. When a certain word like a NUMBER, a COLOR, or a FOOD, it means you need a word that is one of those things, like seven, purple, or potato. A PLACE any type of destination including but not limited to: a room, a country or a state. Kitchen, France, and Louisiana are examples of places. *Source- the Parts of Speech Study Guide made by Mrs. Shipp Tymia Ballard 09/02/14 Mad Libs Project…
