Sinopsis

Excerpt from Common Grammatical and Rhetorical Errors in Freshman Themes as Seen at the University of Illinois

No one who has read and corrected college freshman themes can have failed to notice that certain errors seem to occur in all of them and that the same marks of correction appear repeatedly. It was this which first led me to believe that such errors might be classified with good results. The advantage Which would be gained was plain; for if the mistakes were once listed in some de tail, and not under the general heads of punctuation, spelling, and.the like, the task of correcting them would become easier. Furthermore, if the causes of the errors could be located, there was no question but that the correction would become still less difficult. It is with.this end in view that I have attempted to treat of the common grammatical and rhetorical errors in freshman themes.
