Let’s go through each sentence one by one and figure out what part of speech the
bold word is.
---
1.
A bee stung Janet.
→ “stung” is what the bee *did*. It’s an action. So it’s a
verb.
2.
Paul has ink on his face.
→ “has” here means Paul *possesses* ink. It’s showing possession or state — that’s a verb (specifically, a helping/linking verb). So it’s a
verb.
3.
I would like a golden apple.
→ “golden” describes the apple — what kind? A golden one. Words that describe nouns are
adjectives.
4.
My mother drinks coffee.
→ “drinks” is what the mother does — an action. So it’s a
verb.
5.
Put that box in the cart.
→ “Put” is an instruction — telling someone to do something. That’s an action word →
verb.
6.
It is time for school.
→ “time” is a thing — a noun. Even though it’s abstract, it’s still a noun here. Not describing anything, not an action. So it’s a
noun.
