interject
interjection \in`ter*jec"tion\ (?), n. [l. interjectio: cf. f. interjection. see interject.]
1. the act of interjecting or throwing between; also, that which is interjected. the interjection of laughing.
2. (gram.) a word or form of speech thrown in to express emotion or feeling, as o! alas! ha ha! begone! etc. compare exclamation. an interjection implies a meaning which it would require a whole grammatical sentence to expound, and it may be regarded as the rudiment of such a sentence. but it is a confusion of thought to rank it among the parts of speech. how now! interjections? why, then, some be of laughing, as, ah, ha, he!
