Book Description

Excerpt from Report of the Joint Committee on Grammatical Nomenclature For us English-speaking people, the whole foundation of grammatical study is laid in the study of English in the grammar schools. All our subsequent work, in whatever language, is based upon this study. The Committee has kept this fact constantly in mind. In every case, the name to be used in the teaching of English is given first. The Committee has also recognized that certain distinctions which it seems desirable to make in the more advanced study Of English, and in the study of other languages, need not be made in the grammar schools. The form of presentation adopted is intended to make the lines Of demarcation clear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
