Act,II,.Scene'6

What is grammar?

Grammar is theostudy of the way a language-js

used GraMmar comeS'AftO.a system of language has been ettab-. :lished; In otherwords, gramMar it simply structure or a study.

Of the way a language. works

The Ehglish language has more native speakersthan any other language in the world except Chinese.

English is a require4

language in nearly every school system 'In the world.

Since2

language, changes consthntly, it does not die.

As James Donald

Adams wrote, in the Magic Mystery of Words', "Language is like quicksilyer or alchemy, changfng baser metats.to better, and vice versa.'; 1 I z

PATS-OF SPEECH

Every word..in the EngLish language must perform one of five functionS: naming, asserting, modifying, connecting, ex- claiming. g. The naming words are called nouns and pronouns; the, asserting words, verbs; the modifying words, adjectives and adverbs; the connecting words, preRositions.and conjunctions; the exclaiming words. interjections.' Examine carefully the following sentence from Shakespeare's

Hamlet:

il "0;:that this too too solid flesh wou idielt,

Thaw, and resoive itself into,a.dewl'

In.-ifhis sentence all eight parts of speech ail illustrated.

Nouns :

flesh, dew.

Pronoun:

itself.A .Verbs: would, melt, thaw, resolve:

Adjectives:this, solid,

Adverbs:

too, too.

Preposition:into.

Conjunctions.: 'that, and.

Interjection:0.N.

At first glance, some words seem to belong to certain parts of speech and to no others.

Some of them, however, are interchangeable.

We can never be too sure of the classification of a word until we understand its use in a sentence.

A student who has a real

knowledge of, grammar will achieve it "by note" rather. than "by. ' ear."He will bable not. only to use correct English, but to tell why every expression he writes is correct.

Understdtding the

"why's" of English is one objectiAre UWorkshop in Effective English" aims to achieve:
