What is the difference between parts of speech and parts of the sentence?
As I understand, parts of speech is the single words which are functionaly in a sentence consist of noun, adjective, verb, adverb preposition, conjunction and inter jection which are same as this post.
ReplyDeleteParts of the sentence is the sentences which are functionaly in noun, adjective, adverb, preposition (I don't know clauses or phrases can be the verb in parts of the sentence or not?) but they are form in the phrases or clauses.
For example: What I learn in this class helps me to improve the english language.
What I learn in this class =>noun clause
