English
An Essential Grammar
This is a concise and user-friendly guide to the grammar of modern
English, written specifically for native speakers.
You do not need to have studied English grammar before: all the essen-
tials are explained here clearly and without the use of jargon. Beginning
with the basics, the author then introduces more advanced topics.
Based on genuine samples of contemporary spoken and written English,
the Grammar focuses on both British and American usage, and explores
the differences – and similarities – between the two.
Features include:
• discussion of points which often cause problems
• guidance on sentence building and composition
• practical spelling rules
• explanation of grammatical terms
• appendix of irregular verbs.
English: An Essential Grammar will help you read, speak and write
English with greater confidence. It is ideal for everyone who would like
to improve their knowledge of English grammar.
Gerald Nelson is Research Assistant Professor in the English Department
at The University of Hong Kong, and formerly Senior Research Fellow
at the Survey of English Usage, University College London.
