Answer:

Explanation:

Adjectives modify or describe a noun. These words ascribe an attribute to the noun being modified.

The sleepy bear hibernated all winter.

It's a long drive, but it's worth the trip.

Should I buy the blue jeans or purple sweater?

Adverbs modify or describe a verb, adjective or another adverb or word group. This modification can provide information relating to time, place, manner, cause, degree, or circumstance.

Joe grumpily got out of bed.

Sara ran very quickly to school.

That's quite expensive, don't you think?

Conjunctions are used connect words, phrases and clauses together. They coordinate the words together so they make sense as a cohesive thought, sentence or paragraph.

You'll need to study all night if you want to pass tomorrow's test.

Go to the store and buy some milk.

Kristopher doesn't have enough experience. Therefore, we will not hire him.

Interjections are words used as exclamations to show feelings. They're usually abrupt, interrupting the speech for emotional effect.

Bah, who cares what they think anyway?

If Cody asked me out on a date, gosh, that'd make my day.

I spilled the coffee everywhere. Oops!

Nouns name a person, place, thing idea or quality. They can act as the subject or the object of a sentence.

Send in the clowns.

Brazil is beautiful this time of year.

His love of music really shows.

Prepositions

Prepositions are used to indicate relationships, often spatial, between nouns and pronouns. They indicate how one noun, noun phrase, or pronoun relates to another.

Between you and me, I wouldn't trust Andy.

The coffee shop is across the street.

Put the carrots in the refrigerator, please.

Pronouns

Pronouns take the place of nouns to simplify speech and writing. They can otherwise function in the same way as nouns, serving as subjects and objects in sentences.

She is the smartest kid in class.

George took the book from him.

Who is coming to the party tonight?

Verbs

Verbs express action or a state of being. It is because of the former that verbs are often called "action verbs," but non-action verbs can be used to represent a state of being, need, sense or preference.

Let's walk to the park.

Janine lives in Minneapolis.

The air conditioning unit desperately needs repair.

What does William Wordsworth mean by "wealth" in the following bolded line?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer: He is talking about the lesson he has learned.

Explanation: I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in a sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.
