How you speak and write can say a lot about you. Grammar makes a lasting impression, but learning it can seem like a never-ending parade of complicated and contradictory rules! That’s why we at The Princeton Review created Grammar Smart—instead of boring you with countless rules and confusing grammatical terms, this book takes a fun approach to showing the logic behind each correct sentence.
This updated fourth edition of Grammar Smart brings you: • In-depth reviews of the basic parts of speech • Tips on how to avoid misplaced modifiers and dangling participles • A glossary of key grammar terms • Quick quizzes throughout the book to help you check your progress • Detailed sentence diagrams to help you identify word classes • Comprehensive summaries of each major grammar topic
The Princeton Review is an education services company providing tutoring, test preparation and admission resources for students. It was founded in 1981. and since that time has worked with over 400 million students.
I bought this book to refresh my memory on things I have not learned since 6th grade English. It is truly terrible how teachers do not teach English grammar and writing anymore. They just assign assignments and say, "go work on your Chromebook". My 6th grade English teacher broke down words and sentences. She taught how to develop correct sentences. She demonstrated with examples and had us practice what she taught us. I found this book to be perfect for what I needed.
I bought this on Amazon for studying. This is my voluntary review.
Probably the greatest book on grammar I've ever read. The tone makes the education very easy to understand. I feel like I never have to buy another book about grammar again.
