Spanish Parts of Speech
 Like English the Spanish speech has thousands of words that people use everyday to
communicate, and as we know not all these words have the same function. For
Example, some words express “action”, others words “name things, describe
characteristics, qualities, complement, join or link other words, …” All these are the
“grammatical building blocks" of the language necessary to express our thoughts,
our needs, feelings and everything we want to communicate to others.
 So if we are interesting in learning a second language, the learning process could
resemble the decision of buying a house from someone or build and customize one.
If you chose the second alternative, and if you do it for the first time, these
questions will be coming to your mind:
1. What materials and tools do I need? How these will be used in this project?
2. What I need to do first, second…? What process corresponds to each job?
3. How I will join all these jobs properly to reach my goal?

Spanish Parts of Speech
 All these questions make sense in this case because each part
of the house to build has its own job or function.
 In the case of writing a message to communicate your feelings
using a second language, you have to decide between two
alternatives: First alternative: use the target language one
time without a real knowledge of the language, building some
sentences using a translator and deliver the message. You are
not able to make any changes, you don’t have the knowledge
and any change could affect the content that you are not sure
what you wrote.
Can you find someone to translate your message?

 The second alternative is to learn how to customize
your message, so you have to take classes and learn
to use the language finding answers all your
questions about it.

A language uses different types of words, and

each type of word has its own function in the

sentence, like in English you need to know
the
Spanish categories of the words that are
categorized in 8 basic types or classes called "parts of
speech or the words grammatical category.” Let see

The Spanish grammar considered eight parts of the speech, in this chart we can
observe each one with a specific function in the sentence or grammatical category.
This is one of the reasons why studying grammar is important in any language,
although some people think that it is not important stop to learn grammar and they
think it will be learned by immersion with the time, open the next PowerPoint and
let s talk about a language without grammar.
Do you believe it is possible?
