Determine the part of speech for the italicized word in the sentence below.While their parents were quietly talking, Lilly shrieked "(Mine!)" as she grabbed the toy from Ollie.
noun
verb
adverb
adjective
preposition
interjection

Answers

The part of speech that the word "mine" has in the sentence is "noun" so option A) is correct.

The word "mine" is a pronoun that functions as a replacement of a noun. In this case the pronoun "mine" is a substitute for a noun.

The rest of the parts of speech provided as options do not reflect the function of the pronoun "mine" in the sentence.

To sum up, the pronoun "mine" functions as noun in this sentence.

(Mine) in this sentence functions as a PRONOUN. A possessive pronoun.

But since pronoun isn't one of the options, I think we could also say that it functions as an adjective. Because Lilly is describing the toy as hers.
