Teach Yourself Grammar: A Clear and Concise Guide with Practice Problems - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Would you like to learn grammar, but find the usual explanations confusing? Then you’re in good company!Most of the grammatical rules taught in school are vague, misleading, and difficult to apply. They also ignore more than forty years of research in linguistics, which has brought great advances in our understanding of grammar. Unfortunately, these findings rarely make their way out of graduate seminars in linguistics.Teach Yourself Grammar remedies this situation, explaining what we know about grammar in a way that’s easy to understand and remember. You won’t just learn a bunch of rules — you’ll understand the underlying principles, and why some rules do (or don’t) work.Divided into short chapters that can be read in a single sitting, and which contain key terms, review questions, practice problems, and unit reviews, Teach Yourself Grammar is ideal for self-study, home schooling, or tutoring. The book was originally written for the author’s son, then a sophomore struggling with grammar lessons in high school.
