<Li> Conjunction (sýndesmos): a part of speech binding together the discourse and filling gaps in its interpretation </Li> <P> It can be seen that these parts of speech are defined by morphological, syntactic and semantic criteria . </P> <P> The Latin grammarian Priscian (fl. 500 AD) modified the above eightfold system, excluding "article" (since the Latin language, unlike Greek, does not have articles), but adding "interjection". </P> <P> The Latin names for the parts of speech, from which the corresponding modern English terms derive, were nomen, verbum, participium, pronomen, praepositio, adverbium, conjunctio and interjectio . The category nomen included substantives (nomen substantivum, corresponding to what are today called nouns in English) as well as adjectives (nomen adjectivum). This is reflected in the older English terminology noun substantive and noun adjective . Later the adjective became a separate class, and the English word noun came to be applied to substantives only . </P>
