Parts of speech

Question

My concepts regarding parts of speech is very poor. I don't know how many nouns are there. I'd really appreciate if somebody could please give me some advice on learning parts of speech.
Thanks in advance.

I have already tried that way but the problem is they are not given at a single place. Some pages doesn't have complete description. Is it alright if I ask for a book name here that contains all Parts of Speech in detail?

I don’t know of a book to recommend you, sorry. Where exactly do the websites fall short in their descriptions? What do you want to know specifically?

Thanks a lot

I still have a doubt. Is noun phrase different from phrase?
