of a sentence.
What does that mean, anyway? Well, it means that unlike all of the
other parts of speech, the interjection does not interact with any
other words in the sentence. It doesn't modify anything, and it

verb.

interjection because they don't show emotion. The tone of voice that
you say them in may show emotion, but the name itself does not.
