This article is about interjections in the English language, words that most users of English Wikipedia use all the time but know little about. It has had good article status for roughly a year and is one of very few good articles dealing with a topic in linguistics. English grammars generally give very short shrift to interjections, but there's actually a good deal to say about them. I asked User:Jimfbleak to have a look to help me prepare the article for this nomination, and he has kindly made some helpful suggestions which have improved the article.

Some verbs are formed from interjections meaning "utter the interjection", for example, he humphed and sat down or I shooed them out the door.[10] These can be distinguished from interjections by their ability to inflect for tense.If there is no source that directly supports the content, it is original research which is not allowed ( t · c) buidhe 16:37, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Coord note -- Hi Brett, this is not a typical FA subject by any means and it would be good to see it thoroughly reviewed here but unfortunately it's not getting enough traction after more than two weeks to justify leaving open. Given the lack of in-depth commentary I'd be prepared to waive the usual two-week break before another FAC nom but I would suggest trying Peer Review first -- if anyone comments there you can invite them to visit the FAC nom when you start it. Also be great for you to look over more current FAC noms yourself, commenting as you see fit, to get a feel for the process. Cheers, Ian Rose ( talk) 07:58, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
