    Introduction

    Linguistics is the scientific study of language and its structure, including the
    study of grammar, syntax, phonetics, and semantics. One of the fundamental
    aspects of language is the distinction between verbs and nouns. Verbs are words
    that describe actions, events, or states of being, while nouns are words that refer
    to people, places, things, or ideas. Understanding the differences between verbs
    and nouns is essential for effective communication in English, and it is a crucial
    area of study for linguists (Giovanelli, 2015, p. 416–429).

    In this essay, we will explore the study of verbs and nouns in English from a
    linguistic perspective. We will discuss the teaching techniques used to help
    students understand the differences between these two parts of speech and how
    they can be used effectively in communication (Sifakis, 2018, p.155 – 209).

    Studying verbs and nouns in English is fundamental to understanding the


    language's structure and meaning. Verbs express actions or states, while nouns
    denote people, places, things, or ideas. The linguistic study of verbs and nouns
    involves analyzing their forms, functions, and syntactic roles. Teaching
    techniques for this subject often include interactive activities, real-life
    examples, and language immersion. By exploring the intricacies of verbs and
    nouns, students can enhance their language proficiency and communication
    skills (Achugar, 2007, P. 8-24).

    When studying verbs, learners examine various aspects such as tense, aspect,
    mood, and voice. This involves understanding how different forms of verbs
    indicate the time of an action, its completion, the attitude of the speaker, and the
    relationship between the subject and the action. Nouns, on the other hand, are
    explored in terms of countability, gender, case, and plurality. Students also learn
    about the function of nouns in a sentence, including subject, object,
    complement, and modifier (Oda, 2021, p. 79–89).

    Teaching techniques for verbs and nouns often incorporate visual aids, such as
    diagrams and infographics, to illustrate grammatical concepts. Additionally,
    interactive exercises, including role-playing and sentence construction, can help
    students grasp the usage of verbs and nouns in context. Furthermore, language
    immersion programs provide an effective way to learn verbs and nouns, as
    students are exposed to authentic use of the language in everyday situations
    (Khansir,2013,p.1140–1146).
    The study of verbs and nouns in English is a foundational aspect of language
    learning. By employing various teaching techniques, educators can facilitate a
    comprehensive understanding of these essential linguistic elements, ultimately
    enhancing students' proficiency in the English language (Banegas, 2020, p.148–
    161).
