2. INTRODUCTION
Grammatical categories are a way to
classify the words according to their
semantic typology. In the English language
many words are used in more than one way.
This means that a word can function as
different parts of speech.
For example, in the sentence "I would
like a drink" the word "drink" is a noun. But in
the sentence "They drink too much" the
word "drink" is a verb. Then everything
depends on the role of the word in the
sentence.
This paper tried to provide the elements
of prayer.
3. Personal Pronouns.
o I = YO. WE = NOSOTROS.
o YOU = TÚ. YOU = USTEDES.

o Examples: I am, you are, he is, she is, it is, we are, you are, they are.

10. CONCLUSION
Everything described in this paper, it is
argued that modern grammatical categories
are not a revolution or a dramatic change
from the old. Actually, what they do is
provide a clearer and more precise
conceptualization, which allows, in turn,
delving more and better in the study of
grammar.
