Part of Speech: Preposition, Interjection, Letter, Numeral
Explanation: The word 'A' primarily functions as a preposition in Latin, meaning 'from', 'by', 'away from', or 'out of'. It is always followed by a noun in the ablative case and is used before words beginning with a consonant. If the following word begins with a vowel or 'h', the form 'ab' is used instead. It can also be used as an interjection, similar to 'ah' or 'oh' in English, expressing various emotions. Additionally, 'A' is the first letter of the Latin alphabet and can represent the numeral 'one'.
