English for the Natives: Discover the Grammar You Don't Know You Know

English for the Natives: Discover the Grammar You Don't Know You Know

My first English lesson was grammar with the terrifying Mrs Petrie. She spent the entire time marching up and down the classroom thwacking various items of school furniture with a ruler while she banged on about the ING part of the verb I sat there vibrating with fear desperately trying to figure out what on earth she could mean Irregular Negative Gerund Intransitive Nominative Genitive. It was only years later when I was teaching English to foreign students that I realised that English grammar wasn't obscure and wilfully difficult but a fascinating subject which I was already brilliant at-and this book will prove that you are too. Forget the little you think you know about English grammar and start afresh with this highly entertaining and accessible guide. English for the Natives outlines the rules and structures of our language as they are taught to foreign students-and have never before been explained to us. Harry Ritchie also examines the grammar of dialects as well as standard English.
