Sixth set is the next building block which talks about ‘Nouns and Pronouns’. This explains what is the subject and object in a sentence. How a simple sentence with addition of preposition transforms into a complex sentence. Further when adjectives are added the sentences offer additional information about the subject. The singular, plural, irregular and regular nouns’ usage is also explained.
