Hi, friends.
On this fine day, I have taken a strong part of Grammar to you
which will give the clear concept of it.
First of all,we all have to find a clear concept on what Grammar
is. It is:
Grammar is the science that deals with the rules and practices of
a language which are for changing the form of words and joining them into
sentences.
Now, you can feel the Importance of Grammar.
If you don't know Grammar,a language will be made in an ugly form.
It is,the disorder in forming a sentence.
Now, be positive.
A first but strong part of
Parts Of Speech.

Let's get started:
What is Noun?
A simple way:
Noun means a name.
It is in a broad way:

action, feeling etc.
