Excerpt from English Grammar for Beginners
A language consists of words, which may be spoken or written. Spoken words are sounds which convey a meaning, - not mere noises like the cries of the farm-yard. Written words are composed of letters, and suggest to us these sounds. The thousands of words, of which a language consists, may be arranged in a small number of groups, according to the purpose for which we employ them. The words in some of these groups undergo slight changes which produce variations in their meanings. Words do their work, not when they stand alone, but when they are arranged in such a manner as to form sentences, or, as we sometimes say, to make sense.
