| pronoun antecedent agreement worksheets: English Grammar For Dummies Geraldine Woods, 2011-03-16 A few years ago, a magazine sponsored a contest for the comment most likely to end a conversation. The winning entry? I teach English grammar. Just throw that line out at a party; everyone around you will clam up or start saying whom. Why does grammar make everyone so nervous? Probably because English teachers, for decades – no, for centuries – have been making a big deal out of grammar in classrooms, diagramming sentences and drilling the parts of speech, clauses, and verbals into students until they beg for mercy. Happily, you don't have to learn all those technical terms of English grammar – and you certainly don't have to diagram sentences – in order to speak and write correct English. So rest assured – English Grammar For Dummies will probably never make your English teacher's top-ten list of must-read books, because you won't have to diagram a single sentence. What you will discover are fun and easy strategies that can help you when you're faced with such grammatical dilemmas as the choice between I and me, had gone and went, and who and whom. With English Grammar For Dummies, you won't have to memorize a long list of meaningless rules (well, maybe a couple in the punctuation chapter!), because when you understand the reason for a particular word choice, you'll pick the correct word automatically. English Grammar For Dummies covers many other topics as well, such as the following: Verbs, adjectives, and adverbs – oh my! Preposition propositions and pronoun pronouncements Punctuation: The lowdown on periods, commas, colons, and all those other squiggly marks Possession: It's nine-tenths of grammatical law Avoiding those double negative vibes How to spice up really boring sentences (like this one) Top Ten lists on improving your proofreading skills and ways to learn better grammar Just think how improving your speaking and writing skills will help you in everyday situations, such as writing a paper for school, giving a presentation to your company's big wigs, or communicating effectively with your family. You will not only gain the confidence in knowing you're speaking or writing well, but you'll also make a good impression on those around you! |
| pronoun antecedent agreement worksheets: Advanced French Grammar Monique L'Huillier, 1999-06-17 This 1999 reference grammar, written for advanced students of French, their teachers, and others who want a better understanding of the French language, combines the best of modern and traditional approaches. Its objective is not only practical mastery of the language, but familiarity with its structure. Taking into account modern linguistic research, Advanced French Grammar approaches the French language primarily through the study of syntactic structures, but without excessive emphasis on formalism. It provides a generous number of examples, based on the author's own experience of teaching French to English-speakers, to help the student to understand the different meanings of apparently similar syntactic alternatives. The norms of 'correct expression' are given together with current usage and deviations, and appendixes provide information on the 1990 spelling reforms and on numbers. A substantial index of French and English words and of topics provides easy access to the text itself. |

| pronoun antecedent agreement worksheets: Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems Galileo, 2001-10-02 Galileo’s Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems, published in Florence in 1632, was the most proximate cause of his being brought to trial before the Inquisition. Using the dialogue form, a genre common in classical philosophical works, Galileo masterfully demonstrates the truth of the Copernican system over the Ptolemaic one, proving, for the first time, that the earth revolves around the sun. Its influence is incalculable. The Dialogue is not only one of the most important scientific treatises ever written, but a work of supreme clarity and accessibility, remaining as readable now as when it was first published. This edition uses the definitive text established by the University of California Press, in Stillman Drake’s translation, and includes a Foreword by Albert Einstein and a new Introduction by J. L. Heilbron. |

| pronoun antecedent agreement worksheets: Writing from the Core Dona Young, 2009-09 Writing from the Core is more than a handbook: it is a roadmap that leads to correct and effective writing. -An effective writing style begins with well-written sentences: sentences that speak to the reader clearly and concisely. - Structure and style cross paths at the sentence core: gain control of the sentence core, and you also gain control of your editing and revising skills. - In fact, once you can edit and revise with skill, you may spend more time mulling over your writing and reaching deeper insight, improving substance as well as style. Writing from the Core takes the mystery out of how to produce correct, clear, and concise writing, building confidence along with skill. I love this approach; it's practical yet personal. Writing from the Core is a guide with personality - it takes theory and makes it real. -Elizabeth Anderson, Writing Instructor, College of DuPage A straight-forward handbook that has been infinitely more useful than any handbook or workbook I've used in college. -Dominic Schiralli, Fine Arts major, Indiana University Northwest Students who use this method have a much easier time with composition. Structure becomes easy, so they can focus on building their writing skills. This is a great method producing fantastic results. - Peggy Patlan, Adult Education Instructor, Moraine Valley Community College |
