So there are thousands of words in any language. But not all of the words  are having same work to do in language. For example, some words are used to grasp "action". other words may explain a "thing." Some other words, "connect" a word to others. Indeed all words acts like a "building blocks" of the language. What you think parts of a house are build of? 

If you are going to build your own house, you will use concrete to make the foundations. You will use bricks to make the walls and boundaries. You will use window frames to make the windows, and door frames to make the doors. And we use cement to join all of them together. Each part of the house has its own duty or you can say function. Similarly, when you want to build a sentence, you will use the different types of words. Each type of word has its own function.
