This
market-leading text for grammar courses is a comprehensive description
of sentence structure that encourages students to recognize and use
their innate language expertise as they study the systematic nature of
sentence grammar.
A practical blend of
the most useful elements of both traditional and new linguistic grammar,
the text emphasizes whole structures, most specifically the ten basic
sentence patterns introduced in Chapter 3. Two key features separate
this book from others: its clear organization and its user-friendly,
accessible language. Both students and teachers appreciate the
self-teaching quality that incremental exercises provide throughout the
chapters, with answers at the end of the book.
