Praxis Exam 5001 Practice Question
Which of the following parts of speech expresses emotion?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Interjections are unique parts of speech that express strong emotions or sudden bursts of feeling, such as "Wow!" or "Ouch!" They stand apart from other parts of speech in their primary function of conveying emotional responses.
Verbs (A) indicate actions or states of being but do not inherently express emotion. Adverbs (C) modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, providing more detail about how actions are performed, rather than expressing feelings. Pronouns (D) replace nouns to avoid repetition but do not convey emotion themselves. Thus, interjections are the only option specifically designed to express emotions.
