An introduction to English grammar provides a comprehensive overview of all aspects of English grammar. The first part of the book, "The Grammar," offers a step-by-step introduction to the key topics in English grammar. The second part, "The Applications," demonstrates how understanding these topics can help resolve usage problems, develop a clear writing style, and master punctuation and spelling. A whole chapter, "English in Use," is dedicated to illustrating the grammatical features of a wide range of modern text types, including emails, social media pages, and tweets. It also examines the special grammatical features of English in everyday conversation. Each chapter is followed by two sets of exercises. The first set can be used for self-study or in the classroom, while the second set addresses more advanced topics and can be used for classroom discussion or essay writing.
