syntactic categories

Syntactic categories are classifications of words based on their roles in sentences. The main categories include nouns (people, places, or things), verbs (actions or states), adjectives (describing words), adverbs (modifiers for verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs), pronouns (substitutes for nouns), prepositions (showing relationships), conjunctions (connecting words), and interjections (expressing emotions). Understanding these categories helps us grasp how words combine to create meaning and structure in language, allowing for clear communication and comprehension of complex ideas.
