Nouns

名词

💡 概念 Concept

A noun is a word that names a person, a place, a thing, or an idea. Quick test: if you can put a, an or the in front of a word — or make it plural — it is almost always a noun.名词是表示人、地点、事物或想法的词。快速检验:如果某个词前面可以加 a / an / the,或者可以变成复数,它通常就是名词。

📐 规则 Rules

人
Anna, teacher, doctor, friend
Anna、老师、医生、朋友
地点
school, park, Shanghai, office
学校、公园、上海、办公室
事物与想法
book, music, freedom, happiness
书、音乐、自由、幸福
检验法
a book / an apple / the sun → 名词
a book / an apple / the sun → 名词

✏️ 例句 Examples

The teacher reads a book in the park.
老师正在公园里读书。
Music brings me happiness.
音乐带给我快乐。
Anna is my best friend.
安娜是我最好的朋友。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ I like the beautiful. → Use a noun: I like beauty / beautiful things.❌ 形容词不能直接当名词:应说 I like beauty(我喜欢美)或 beautiful things(美丽的事物)。
❌ He has two cat. → Make the noun plural: He has two cats.❌ 复数名词要加 s:He has two cats.(他有两只猫。)
F-02

Verbs

动词

💡 概念 Concept

A verb says what the subject does or is. Every sentence needs one. Verbs can change their form to show time: walk, walked, will walk.动词说明主语做什么或是什么。每个句子都离不开动词。动词会随时间变化:walk(走)、walked(走过)、will walk(将走)。

📐 规则 Rules

动作
run, eat, play, write, study
跑、吃、玩、写、学习
状态
be, like, have, think, feel
是、喜欢、有、想、感觉
句子核心
Every sentence has a verb: Birds sing.
每个句子都有动词:Birds sing.(鸟儿歌唱。)

✏️ 例句 Examples

I play football after school.
我放学后踢足球。
She likes music very much.
她非常喜欢音乐。
We are in the same class.
我们在同一个班。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ I am agree with you. → be + verb is wrong here: I agree with you.❌ agree 是动词,前面不要再加 am:I agree with you.(我同意你。)
❌ He can to swim. → After can, use the verb without to: He can swim.❌ can 后面用动词原形,不加 to:He can swim.(他会游泳。)
F-03

Adjectives

形容词

💡 概念 Concept

An adjective describes a noun — what something is like. It usually goes before the noun, or after be (am / is / are / was / were).形容词描写名词,说明事物是什么样的。它通常放在名词前面,或放在 be 动词(am / is / are…)后面。

📐 规则 Rules

名词之前
a red apple, a big house, a happy child
一个红苹果、一座大房子、一个快乐的孩子
be 之后
The apple is red. She is happy.
苹果是红的。她很快乐。
检验法
very + 形容词:very big, very delicious
very + 形容词:非常大、非常美味

✏️ 例句 Examples

It is a beautiful sunny day.
今天是美丽晴朗的一天。
The soup smells delicious.
这汤闻起来很香。
My little brother is very clever.
我的小弟弟非常聪明。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ She is a girl beautiful. → Adjectives come before nouns: a beautiful girl.❌ 形容词放在名词前:a beautiful girl(一个美丽的女孩)。
❌ The soup is deliciously. → After is, use the adjective: delicious.❌ is 后面用形容词:The soup is delicious.(汤很美味。)
F-04

Adverbs

副词

💡 概念 Concept

An adverb describes a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. Many adverbs end in -ly (quickly, slowly), but some do not: fast, well, hard, early.副词修饰动词、形容词或另一个副词。许多副词以 -ly 结尾(quickly 快速地),也有一些不加 -ly:fast(快)、well(好)、hard(努力)、early(早)。

📐 规则 Rules

修饰动词
She sings beautifully. He runs fast.
她唱得很好听。他跑得很快。
修饰形容词
very good, really tired, extremely hot
非常好、真的很累、极其炎热
常见 -ly
quickly, slowly, carefully, happily
快速地、缓慢地、仔细地、开心地
不规则
fast, well, hard, early, late
快、好、努力、早、晚

✏️ 例句 Examples

Please speak slowly and clearly.
请说慢一点、清楚一点。
She dances very well.
她跳舞跳得很好。
He works hard every day.
他每天都很努力地工作。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ He runs very fastly. → fast has no -ly form: He runs very fast.❌ fast 不加 -ly:He runs very fast.(他跑得很快。)
❌ She sings beautiful. → To describe a verb, use the adverb: beautifully.❌ 修饰动词要用副词:She sings beautifully.(她唱得很好听。)
F-05

Pronouns

代词

💡 概念 Concept

A pronoun replaces a noun so we do not repeat it. Subject pronouns do the action: I, you, he, she, it, we, they. Object pronouns receive the action: me, you, him, her, it, us, them.代词用来代替名词,避免重复。主格代词做动作:I、you、he、she、it、we、they;宾格代词接受动作:me、you、him、her、it、us、them。

📐 规则 Rules

主语位置
I like tea. She is my teacher.
我喜欢茶。她是我的老师。
宾语位置
Please help me. I called him yesterday.
请帮帮我。我昨天给他打了电话。
指人用 he / she
Anna → she; Tom → he
安娜 → she;汤姆 → he
指物用 it
The phone is new. It is black.
这部手机是新的。它是黑色的。

✏️ 例句 Examples

My friend and I often play basketball.
我和我的朋友经常打篮球。
This is Lisa. I know her very well.
这是丽莎。我跟她很熟。
The cat is hungry. Please feed it.
猫饿了,请喂喂它。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ Me and Tom went to the park. → In the subject position, use I last: Tom and I went to the park.❌ 主语位置用 I,且把自己放后面:Tom and I went to the park.(汤姆和我去了公园。)
❌ Please give the book to I. → After to, use the object form: to me.❌ to 后面用宾格:Please give the book to me.(请把书给我。)

Word Classes at Work

词性大协作

💡 概念 Concept

A sentence is a team. The subject (noun or pronoun) does the action, the verb carries the action, adjectives dress up nouns, and adverbs dress up verbs.句子是一个团队:主语(名词或代词)发出动作,动词承载动作,形容词修饰名词,副词修饰动词。

📐 规则 Rules

主语
noun / pronoun: The dog, She
名词或代词:那只狗、她
谓语
verb: runs, sings
动词:跑、唱
修饰名词
adjective before noun: a happy dog
形容词放在名词前:一只快乐的狗
修饰动词
adverb after verb: runs quickly
副词修饰动词:跑得很快

✏️ 例句 Examples

The happy dog runs quickly.
那只快乐的小狗跑得很快。(the + 形容词 happy + 名词 dog + 动词 runs + 副词 quickly)

我的小妹妹唱得很甜。

⚠️ 常见错误 Common Mistakes

❌ Is raining. → Every sentence needs a subject: It is raining.❌ 句子不能没有主语:It is raining.(正在下雨。)
