Sinopsis
This book challenges the traditional view of grammar as a dry, rule-based subject. Instead, the author argues that language itself is the ultimate source of grammatical truths, and that studying grammar should be akin to exploring the natural world. By analyzing real language, students can discover the laws that govern word formation, meaning, and usage. The author's approach draws inspiration from the scientific spirit of the 19th century, a time when natural history and experimental science were flourishing. The book emphasizes the importance of analyzing language specimens, similar to the way botanists and chemists study their subjects. Through this process, students can develop their critical thinking skills and gain a deeper understanding of the evolution and complexity of language. The author also explores the historical development of English grammar, showing how certain â exceptionsâ are actually remnants of earlier linguistic forms. This perspective reveals the interconnectedness of past and present language, highlighting how the English language has evolved over time. By providing a scientific and historically informed approach to grammar, this book offers a richer, more engaging learning experience, making the study of language both intellectually stimulating and personally rewarding.

Excerpt from The Grammar, History and Derivation of the English Language: With Chapters on Parsing, Analysis of Sentences, and Prosody
It is commonly assumed that Grammar is a purely verbal science, in which the student is mainly occupied in learning definitions, paradigms, and rules of syntax, and that it is, consequently, far inferior as an instrument of mental discipline to natural history and experimental science. The mode in which it has been too frequently taught gives some colour to this view; but, rightly taught, grammar is as much a real study as botany or chemistry. Words are things, as well as the symbols of things, and are subject to definite natural laws - to laws of growth and decay, to laws of inflexion and syntax, to laws affecting their signification. The study of these laws affords room for just the same sort of independent effort as the study of physical science. The facts of language are still where the grammarian originally found them, and the learner may, under proper direction, find them for himself, classify them for himself, and reason from them for himself. It is obvious, therefore, that grammar affords room for original observation, for generalization, for induction and deduction, and that if it were taught in this scientific spirit, its value as a formative study would be very high.
