Usual classification of Russian divides all words into the following parts of speech: noun, adjective, numeral, pronoun, verb, adverb, pretext, union, particle, interjection. There are also parenthesises which are not relating to one of the specified parts of speech. Special signs on which the word can be carried to any given group are characteristic of each part of speech.
Instruction
1. To define to what part of speech the word belongs, at first ask a question to it. The questions "Who?" or "What?" are answered by nouns and pronouns. "What to do? / does / sdealal" - verbs. "What?" - adjectives, participles. "How many?" and "What?" - numerals. "How?" - an adverb.
2. At the same time nouns call a subject or the phenomenon (bird, a tree, war), and pronouns only specify regarding, without calling it (it, its, their, our, I).
3. Participles though answer the question "What?", but are verbal forms as come from a verb (drawing, drawn) whereas the adjectives answering the same question are independent words (beautiful, white, exact). Participles are divided into valid (if an object itself makes action, for example, "crying") and passive (if action is made over an object, for example, "constructed").
4. One more verbal form – an adverbial participle. The adverbial participle answers the question "What Doing?" or "What Having Made?" (drawing, looking, having constructed). It is an unchangeable form of a verb.
5. The words of type "where" "where" "why", etc. belong to adverbs. These are pronominal adverbs.
6. There are also auxiliary parts of speech: pretexts, unions, particles. Pretexts always face nouns or pronouns (on, for, at, in, under, etc.). The unions connect among themselves offers (and, and because, but before, etc.). Particles give to a statement or separate words additional semantic and emotional shades (which - well, even, say, allegedly, etc.).
7. The special group is made by interjections. It words by means of which we express feelings, emotions (ah, alas), motivation to action (pussycats pussycats, hey). Interjections can be also formulas of speech etiquette (hi, so far, please).
8. Still there are so-called parenthesises which do not belong to the above-mentioned parts of speech. It the words of type so, total, generally, means also others.
