An Introduction to English Grammar provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of English grammar. The first part of the book (‘The Grammar’) provides a step-by-step introduction to the key topics in English grammar. The second part (‘The Applications’) shows how a grasp of these topics can be helpful in resolving usage problems, in developing a clear writing style, and in mastering punctuation and spelling. A whole chapter, ‘English in Use’, is devoted to illustrating the grammatical features of a wide range of modern text types, including emails, Facebook pages, and ‘tweets’. It also looks at the special grammatical features of English in everyday conversation.
Each chapter is followed by two sets of exercises. The first set can be used in self-study or in the classroom. The second set deals with more advanced topics, and can be used for classroom discussion or essay writing.
This fourth edition has been fully revised and updated and includes:
- clearer descriptions and improved presentation - new material on word structure and word formation - new exercises, examples and extracts - updated further reading
Some combinations of words are possible in English, while others are not possible. Every native speaker of English can easily judge that ‘Home computers are now much cheaper’ is a possible English sentence, whereas *‘Home computers now much are cheaper’ is not, because they know that much is wrongly positioned in the second example. The ability to recognize such distinctions is evidence that, in some sense, native speakers already know the rules of grammar, even if they have never formally studied grammar. Similarly, native speakers apply the rules every time they speak or write (they can put words in the right order) and every time they interpret what others say (they know that ‘Susan loves Tom’ means something quite different from ‘Tom loves Susan’).
Assuming no prior knowledge of English grammar, this book is ideal for beginning students on a one-semester course and provides everything a student needs on the theory and practice of English usage. A comprehensive Glossary of grammatical terms is included and a website provides invaluable additional exercises.
