In Greek there are 10 parts of speech. Some of them we can conjugate:
| article | άρθρο | a grammatical marker of definiteness (the) or indefiniteness (a, an) |
| noun | ουσιαστικό | the name of a specific object or set of objects, such as living creatures, places, actions, qualities, states of existence, or ideas |
| adjective | επίθετο | a modifier of a noun or pronoun (big, brave). Adjectives make the meaning of another word (noun) more precise. |
| pronoun | αντωνυμία | a substitute for a noun or noun phrase (them, he) |
| verb | ρήμα | a word denoting an action (walk), occurrence (happen), or state of being (be) |
| participle | κλιτή μετοχή | a part of speech derived from a verb but behaving like an adjective (χαρούμενος) |
Others we can’t:
| participle | άκλιτη μετοχή | a part of speech derived from a verb describing how something is done (τρέχοντας) |
| adverb | επίρρημα | a modifier of an adjective, verb, or another adverb (very, quite) |
| conjunction | σύνδεσμος | a syntactic connector; links words, phrases, or clauses (and, but). Conjunctions connect words or group of words |
| preposition | πρόθεση | a word that relates words to each other in a phrase or sentence. Prepositions show the relationship between a noun or a pronoun with another word in the sentence. |
| interjection | επιφώνημα | an emotional greeting or exclamation (Huzzah, Alas). Interjections express strong feelings and emotions. |
