Parts of Speech Worksheets - Free Printable

Let's solve the "Parts of Speech" worksheet step by step. The goal is to identify the part of speech for each underlined word in the sentence and write:

- N if it's a noun (a person, place, thing, or idea),
- V if it's a verb (an action),
- A if it's an adjective (describes a noun).

Here’s the worksheet with the underlined words analyzed one by one:

---

1. Tara picked a fresh *rose* out of the garden for her aunt.
- *"rose"* = a flower → a thing → N (noun)

2. Do you know anyone with a *cute* garden?
- *"cute"* describes the garden → A (adjective)

3. The sleeping *bear* cuts grass and potted her mother for attention.
- *"bear"* = animal → N (noun)
*(Note: This sentence has a grammatical error — “bear” doesn’t cut grass, and “potted her mother” is odd. But we're only identifying parts of speech.)*

4. We will *book* a hotel room before leaving for our trip.
- *"book"* = action (to reserve) → V (verb)

5. Caitlin bought a new *book* in his favorite series.
- *"book"* = object → N (noun)

6. Do you belong to a *book* club?
- *"book"* = type of club → N (noun)

7. If I *cannot*, the mouse, you can catch it easily.
- *"cannot"* = contraction of "can not" → V (verb, auxiliary verb)

8. One *aspect* of my poster work was bent.
- *"aspect"* = part or feature → N (noun)

9. We live in the *coastal* house.
- *"coastal"* describes the house → A (adjective)

10. Some paper will *yellow* with age.
- *"yellow"* = change color → action → V (verb)

11. Sara needs more *yellow* paint to finish the portrait.
- *"yellow"* describes the paint → A (adjective)

12. *Yellow* is a warm color.
- *"yellow"* = name of a color → N (noun)
*(Note: In this case, "yellow" is used as a noun, like a category or concept.)*

13. I ate some *tasty* carrots for lunch.
- *"tasty"* describes the carrots → A (adjective)

14. The newborn *baby* cried all night.
- *"baby"* = person → N (noun)

15. My dad will *babe* his new car by waxing it every week.
- *"babe"* → likely meant to be "babe" but is probably a typo for "buff" or "beautify"?
However, assuming it's intended as "babe" (which is not a standard verb), but perhaps it's meant to be "buff" (to polish).
Alternatively, if it's written as "babe", that might be a misspelling of "babe" (as in "babe the car"), which is not correct.

But looking at context: "My dad will babe his new car by waxing..." — this seems like a typo. Likely intended to be "buff" or "care" or "polish".

Assuming it's meant to be "buff" (to shine), then:
- *"buff"* = action → V (verb)

Alternatively, if it's "babe" as in "love" or "cherish", it's still a verb.

But since it's unclear, let's assume it's a typo for "buff" → V

However, based on common usage, the intended word is likely "buff", so:

→ V (verb)

✔ Explanation: We identified each underlined word by asking:
- Is it a person, place, thing, or idea? → Noun
- Does it show an action? → Verb
- Does it describe a noun? → Adjective

Even with minor errors in sentence structure (like "the sleeping bear cuts grass"), we focused only on the part of speech of the underlined word.
