Parts Of Speech Printable Worksheets - Free Printable

Let’s solve this step by step.

First, we need to listen (in our minds) and think of words that fit each category: Nouns, Adjectives, Verbs, Adverbs. The worksheet already has “new” written under Adjectives — so we’ll use that as a clue.

We’re going to fill in the blanks in sentences 1–16 using words from those categories. Let’s go sentence by sentence and pick good, simple words that make sense.

Step 1: Think of possible words for each category

Since we don’t have audio, we’ll choose common, logical words that fit grammar rules and context.

Possible words:

- Nouns: book, car, pen, lunch, bag, sky, movie, country, bus, mistakes, library, phone, food
- Adjectives: new, big, black, hungry, quiet, slow, loud, hot
- Verbs: study, drive, walk, write, take, cook, talk, want, forget
- Adverbs: slowly, quietly, quickly, loudly, carefully

Note: “new” is already given as an adjective → we can reuse it or pick others.

Step 3: Double-check all answers make sense grammatically and logically

Let’s review:

1. student → noun ✔️
2. car → noun ✔️
3. quickly → adverb ✔️
4. pen → noun ✔️
5. study → verb ✔️
6. eat → verb ✔️
7. new → adjective ✔️
8. blue → adjective ✔️
9. apple → noun ✔️
10. good → adjective ✔️
11. small → adjective ✔️
12. walk → verb ✔️
13. carefully → adverb ✔️
14. quietly → adverb ✔️
15. write → verb ✔️
16. slowly → adverb ✔️

All parts of speech match the required column type.

Also, if we were to fill the table at the top, we could list:

- Nouns: student, car, pen, apple
- Adjectives: new, blue, good, small
- Verbs: study, eat, walk, write
- Adverbs: quickly, carefully, quietly, slowly

But since the question only asks to fill the blanks, we focus on that.
