Grammar and Usage : English in Context


Grammar is a very old field of study. Did you know that the sentence was first divided into subject and verb by the famed 
Greek philosopher, Plato? That was about 2,400 years ago! Ever s ince then, people all over the world have found it worthwhile 
to study the structure of words and sentences.  

 Why? Because c ompetence in speaking and writing is the hallmark of all e ducated people. Grammar counts. Every time you speak or write a sentence, 
your mind is choosing words from the eight parts of speech: nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs, adjectives, prepositions, 
conjunctions, and interjections. Studying these different kinds o f words—and the basic patterns of English sentences steadily 
develops the skills and concepts you need to communicate effectively. 


The exercises in this worktext provide a fundamental i ntroduction and review of the rules that govern Standard English. 
Usage Notes are included throughout the text to reinforce the s kills you already have and to alert you to common problem 
areas. We wish you every success as you travel farther along t he road to mastery of language skills!
