Interjections
Among all the parts of speech, I think interjections are the easiest to understand. They are word/s used to show sudden feelings like surprise, anger, fear, pain, disgust, dismay or even disappointment. It's easy to find interjections within paragraphs for they are generally followed by exclamation marks. It's also grammatically independent, so it can be placed or omitted from sentences without much difference in the meaning of the sentences.
There are 2 types of interjections:
Pure interjections-ex. Ah! Alas! Oh! Ouch! Tsk-Tsk! Wow! Whew!
Other Parts of Speech Used as Interjections-ex. Listen! Get out! What a pity!
