In our second lesson, we re-vised the definitions of verbs, adjectives, pronouns etc to make sure we understood what category any particular word in a sentence falls into.

Verb - A 'doing' word
Adverb - Describing a verb
Adjective - A 'describing' word
Noun - Person, place, thing, name, animal, object
Pronoun - A name
Subjective personal pronoun - When the pronoun acts as the subject
