English Grammar>>

                                              

 

 

This course will extensively cover the structure of contemporary English grammar. It will also explore the usage problems associated with contemporary grammar in both speech and writing. Topics will include: the structure of English (words, phrases, clauses, and sentences), sentence structure problems, agreement errors, commonly confused and misused words, and spelling. The course also focuses on the three fundamental issues underlying all errors of grammatical usage: the notion of Standard English, the effects of language change on English grammar, and the effects of language attitudes on our ideas of "correct" English. This course will be of interest not only to English, education, journalism and technical writing students, but also anyone who wishes to improve his/her editing and proofreading abilities.
