Offering a clear and curated exploration of English morphology, syntax, and grammar, the book is crafted for a structured and flexible learning experience. It caters to students who are relatively new to the subject, including those learning English as a second language.
The book presents a logical progression from basic linguistic principles and a history of the English language to an in-depth analysis of lexical categories and grammatical components. The content is segmented into specific topics such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, and additional parts of speech that underscore usage-based concerns alongside structural explanations. Online exercises and checkpoints are included throughout to reinforce comprehension and mastery of concepts.
The Nuts and Bolts of English features a balanced approach suitable for survey courses examining language structure and is ideal for courses and programs in the areas of linguistics and English language studies.
