It is important to use the correct part of speech.

• Noun: The things, people, ideas, etc. that we talk and write about
• Verb: The action or condition (states) of the nouns
• Pronoun: The words that replace nouns (I, you, he, she, it, they, me, him, her, them, etc.)
• Adjective: A word to describe nouns
• Adverbs: A word to describe a verb or an adjective. Most of these end in -ly

A word form error occurs when you use the wrong part of speech.
