TAILIEUCHUNG - The Good Grammar Guide

Does grammar bother you? Does it inspire first boredom, then fear? Since the virtual removal forty years ago of formal grammar teaching from our schools’ standard curriculum, such negative responses have increasingly characterised students and professionals alike. As this lively and accessible book sets out to prove, that is both unfortunate and unnecessary. Not only is grammar an enabling servant rather than a tyrannical set of absolute rules: it can also be fun. The Good Grammar Guide offers extensive coverage of Parts of Speech, Syntax, Inflection and Punctuation, along with a detailed look at common errors and misconceptions | The Good Grammar Guide Richard Palmer 0 Routledge Taylor Francis Group LONDON AND NFW YORK Also available as a printed book see title verso for ISBN details The Good Grammar Guide Does grammar bother you Does it inspire first boredom then fear Since the virtual removal forty years ago of formal grammar teaching from our schools standard curriculum such negative responses have increasingly characterised students and professionals alike. As this lively and accessible book sets out to prove that is both unfortunate and unnecessary. Not only is grammar an enabling servant rather than a tyrannical set of absolute rules it can also be fun. The Good Grammar Guide offers extensive coverage of Parts of Speech Syntax Inflection and Punctuation along with a detailed look at common errors and misconceptions. Regular exercises are included as is a detailed glossary of technical terms and its finale offers a baleful survey of Politically Correct usage whose desire to sanitize and control the way we speak is injurious to grammar language itself and indeed the way we live now. In keeping with its governing promise Grammar serves language it has done and it always will do. It has never been nor should ever be the other way round. The aim throughout is to reassure and entertain as well as instruct. Indeed although this handy volume may not be the most comprehensive guide available it has a strong claim to be considered the most amusing and as such it is guaranteed to banish both boredom and fear. Though entirely discreet The Good Grammar Guide can additionally be read as a companion to the author s Write in Style also published in Routledge s Study Guides series. Richard Palmer is Head of English at Bedford School. He is the author of Brain Train Studying for Success and Write in Style A Guide to Good English.
