Book excerpt: Excerpt from Grammatic Guide: Or Common School Grammar In presenting this volume to the Public, the Author has no apologies to make. It is almost the offspring of necessity, having grown out of the course the Author has pursued in teaching English Grammar for some time. No work was found embracing his views of the subject; but this alone would not have called forth this volume. It was the order in which our text books on English Grammar are arranged, that caused the great difficulty. But while preparing a work which should obviate this difficulty, the Author has had no hesitation in introducing the results of his own experience, although they may, in some instances, be a departure from long established opinions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Common-School Grammar of the English Language Language, said Sheridan, is the great instrument by which all the faculties of the mind are brought forward, moulded, and polished. He why travels over our extensive country can easily observe that wherever the people have a limited and obscure knowledge of language, there all the other elements of civilization and refinement are in a correspondingly undeveloped state; but that wherever it home is surrounded by the bean ties ef nature and art, there is also generally heard such language as reveals the presence of literature and the cultivation of thought and sensibility. Language is at once the most useful, powerful, delicate, and durable instrument wielded by man. It materializes thought, so as to make it tangible, permanent, and transmissible; and it thus carries civilization into every nook and corner of the world. It receives the intellect, heart, and achievements of every generation; and bears forward the responsible bur den to be judged by every future generation. While the marble crumbles.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A School Grammar of the English Language Only those who, by teaching English grammar, come into Close contact with the young pupil, can know the difficulty of securing a satisfactory text-book. The prob lem of making an elementary treatise that is scholarly as well as sufficiently simple is one not easy of solution. The temptation to make a subject easy by mechanical devices or by short-cut methods is strong with the teacher; and the writer who supplies the text-book is strongly drawn to those expedients that will make the manual merely the most teachable. On the other hand, there is a temptation to the student of historical English to sup pose the grammar school child not only eager for the intricacies of linguistic development, but able to com prehend them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Latin Grammar for Schools This book is in the main an abridgment for school purposes of my larger Latin Grammar, but the abridgment is very unequal, some parts being reproduced with slight omissions, some parts being largely reduced, and others again being rewritten. Under the last head fall especially chaps. I and ii, of Book I, and chap. Vi of Book 11. Of the last-named chapter, part, particularly I 32, contains an analysis which is, I think, new and interesting. I have added an English trans lation of the Examples in almost the whole of the Syntax. It will be found that in some cases I have given the ordinary English equivalent, whilst in others I have aimed rather at explaining the Latin construction. Three Appendices are new, viz. Those on Metre, on Grammatical and Rhetorical terms, and on Latin authors. Some changes in arrangement have been made (e. G. As regards degrees of comparison, and Numerals) to suit ordinary usage.

This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Grammar for the Common School The author or the teacher should try, not so much to make Grammar easy, by falsely showing it to require no thought, as to make it interesting, by helping the pupil to experience the fascination of its thought. And in teaching the application of principles to the construction of the sentence, the teacher should require incomplete sentences to be filled out, or entire sentences to be written, thereby necessitating discrimination and judgment on the part of the pupil. In this positive way practical Grammar should be taught, and not by exhibiting to the pupil examples of false syntax, which is like compelling a child to spend a few hours each day in dens of iniquity, in order that he may constantly behold what he is not to be and to do.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rand-McNally English Grammar and Composition New text-books on grammar appear annually, a fact which proves clearly the difficulty the teacher experiences in finding the ideal book for school use. Many of these books have admirable features, but few are adapted to the needs of the learner. The young pupil does not need an exhaustive treatise. What he does need is a concise statement of the actual facts of modern English brief, clear definitions of the laws of language, and ample illustra tion of these principles by examples that illustrate, chosen from the masters of English. This second volume of a two-book course on English Grammar is designed to supply pupils of the seventh and Eighth grades with a practical text-book. N o attempt has been made to present a final treatise on the principles of grammar, or to correct the usages of the language. The method of the Primary Grammar was inductive and constructive, as suited to the needs of less mature pupils; the method of the English Grammar is expository and constructive.

Download or read book English Grammar for Common Schools Classic Reprint written by Robert C. Metcalf and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-21 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Grammar for Common Schools Grammar should be taught inductively. Pupils should be led, first, in the light of their own experience, to study the simple facts of language, and then to investigate the more difficult matters of construction and inflection until they arrive at the general laws' which govern its structure. In other words, pupils should be helped to help themselves. And yet it is next to impossible to present inductive lessons throughout a text-book. Lessons must be prepared for classes of pupils; and no one but the teacher can know to What extent each child needs illustrative exercises, or when he is prepared to take the next step. This book is prepared on a plan somewhat different from that followed in most Grammars for schools. There are certain facts of grammar which must be learned before the mastery of other facts becomes possible. But although it is necessary, for example, to know something of the nature of nouns and verbs before beginning to analyze a sentence.
