An interjection is a Word added to a sentence to convey emotlon. It is not grammatically related to any other part of the sentence. You usually follow an interjection with an exclamation mark. Interjections are uncommon in formal academic prose, except in direct quotations. The hiehlighted words in t entences are that hurt! Oh no, I forgot that the exam was today. Hey! Put that down!
I heard one guy say to another guy, «He has a new car, eh? » I don’t know about you but, good lord, think taxes are too high! Interjections are not, although sorne grammarians included in he inventory of Word classes, part of the prayer, but prayer is equivalent to expressing a feeling alive. They are thus signs pregramaticales played by three functions of language found Bühler: expressive, conative and representative. Also equivalent to sentences without development of type expressions interjectional heavens! God, llghtning and thunder! , Demons! , Heavens! tc Interjections are usually short words or phrases are used primarily in oral, written and oral language plays, often as an expression of relief or expletive outbursts of emotion, often in an almost reflex. Whole phrases can be formed by its core nterjectional (Gee, alas! ) Or other phrases to be more ar less grammaticalized as interjections (For God’s sake! ) Structurally, they are classified mostly as a kind of prayer unimembre interjectional averbal character. This is because you have only one term (ie, Word or short phrase that exists) and lacks a verb.
The following list includes some ofthe most commonly used interjections in English, though many of them are decidedly archaic and therefore seldom used these days except in jest: Ah, aha, ahoy, ay , bah, bravo, duh, encore, fie, good, goodness, gosh, great, hah, hello, here, hey, ho, hmm, huh, humph, hurrah, ush, indeed, lo, now, O, oh, oops, ouch„ pshaw, so, there, tush, tut, ugh, well, what, whoa, whoopee, whoops, why, um,yay, yes, YO Apostrophe In this second lesson Will study the use ofthe apostrophe and its features (and curious) most important. Basically has three uses: a) omission of letters: Apostrophes are used in contractions.
Is meant by ‘contraction’ to a Word (even numbers) in which you have omitted one or more letters (or numbers). The role of the apostrophe is precisely to highlight this omission. The contractions are commonly used in conversation and informal writing. Here are some examples: on’t do not l’m = am he’ll he Will who’s = who is shouldn’t = should not didn’t = did not could’ve = could have ’60 = 19601 The omission of letters is also present in words where writing is colloquial pronunciation of the ending-ing and expression Lees Let us initially was Look at these two examples.
No, thanks. I’m just lookin’. I Let’s go to the movies. b) plural of Iowercase letters: The apostrophe is also used to form the plural of letters in Iowercase (Iowercase letters). In this case, the rule seems to be more typographical than grammatical. To form the plural have to put is after the letter. No apostrophe is necessary to use capital letters, numbers and symbols. However, it should be noted that many publishers and educators maintain that preference.
Here are some examples: ppp three p’s There are three p’s in the phrase ‘Spanish-speaking people’. three Macintosh G4s >> three of the Macintosh model G4 There are two G4s currently used in the writing classroom c) or Saxon Genitive ‘Possessive Case’: The grammarians often called the possessive ending ‘ior’i genitive ‘to the ending is which indicates possession, that is, conveys the idea that something belongs to someone.
