Proper grammar
  1. PARTS OF SPEECH
      1. name people, places, things, and ideas
        1. plural
          1. To make a noun plural, which means there is more than one of them, you normally add an “s.” Certain nouns than end with an s, x, ch, or sh need an “es” added
            1. plural possessive nouns
              1. Add just ’ if it ends in s. Doesn’t end in s, add ‘s.
            2. possessive
              1. When making plural possessive nouns, add only an apostrophe if the noun ends with an “s”, like buses’ and countries’.
              2. collective
                1. This noun represents a group of things or people. Since they refer to the whole group as a unit, they are used as a single noun. Of course, if there are more than one unit, then you would use the plural.
              3. VERB
                1. action or state
                    1. An action can be physical or mental.
                      1. help the main verb express an action or a state of being.
                        1. connect nouns or pronouns (people, places, things, and ideas) to words that describe, label, or identify them.
                      2. ABVERB
                        1. describes a verb, adjective or adverb
                        2. ADJECTIVE
                          1. describes a noun
                          2. CONJUCTION
                            1. joins clauses or sentences or words
                            2. INTERJECTION
                              1. short exclamation, sometimes inserted into a sentence
                              2. PRONOUN
                                1. replaces a noun
                                2. PREPOSITION

                                3. Types of Sentences

                                    1. NOT complete on its own
                                    2. independent
                                      1. complete on its own
                                      2. simple
                                        1. compound
                                          1. complex
                                            1. compound-complex

                                              1. You are making a run-on when you put two complete sentences (a subject and its predicate and another subject and its predicate) together in one sentence without separating them properly.
                                                1. A sentence fragment is an incomplete sentence. Some fragments are incomplete because they lack either a subject or a verb, or both.
                                                  1. fragment
                                                  2. run-on
