Download or read book Simply Jim written by Jerry Hall and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-12-26 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Simply Jim is the story of the early years of Jim Simply growing up in rural Alabama. Jim is thought to be slow mentally because he is quiet, bordering on being shy. He is thought to be a problem because of his slowness by his first grade school teacher. He is a tag along to his older brothers and his dad. In groups where others are talking but no one could remember what was said five minutes later, Jim remembers what was said, who had said it, and the context of what was said. He is very smart but lacks the social manners to fit in. Jim is mentored in baseball by his elementary school principal. His natural ability, developed by throwing rocks on his farm and influenced by his mentor, helped him to become a phenomenal pitcher sought by college and pro teams. Jim is a hard luck type because most of the people with whom he has a close relationship dies, moves away, or suffers maladies causing him to suffer in silence and persevere through loss and disappointment. His mother died in his early years. His mentor died early, and his father died before he is able to fulfill his baseball goals. His brothers and childhood acquaintances moved away. His only positive influences are Joe, an older ninety-seven-year-old man; his uncle John; and his childhood sweetheart, Julie. Jim has so much tragedy in his life but is on the verge of fantastic things happening to him.

Download or read book Adjectives written by Patricia Cabredo Hofherr and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-06 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adjectives are comparatively less well studied than the lexical categories of nouns and verbs. The present volume brings together studies in the syntax and semantics of adjectives. Four of the contributions investigate the syntax of adjectives in a variety of languages (English, French, Mandarin Chinese, Modern Hebrew, Russian, Spanish, and Serbocroatian). The theoretical issues explored include: the syntax of attributive and predicative adjectives, the syntax of nominalized adjectives and the identification of adjectives as a distinct lexical category in Mandarin Chinese. A further four contributions examine different aspects in the semantics of adjectives in English, French, and Spanish, dealing with superlatives, comparatives, and aspect in adjectives. This volume will be of interest to researchers and students in syntax, formal semantics, and language typology.

I have expressed myself through poems and personal reflections on various topics, but I had never ventured into writing anything related to academics—until now. Despite my dedication to learning, I found that many of the English grammar books I read were difficult to understand, and I realized this challenge is shared by many people. In today’s world, having a strong grasp of English is more important than ever, which is why I decided to write this book, Apprendre English Grammar, after conducting extensive research.

Here, you will find clear meanings, examples, and practical uses of every grammatical concept, all explained in easy-to-understand language.

In over 298 pages, I have provided detailed and comprehensive explanations on every topic, ensuring that this book is a valuable resource even for those who are completely new to English. I believe that through this book, even beginners will be able to study English in a structured and effective manner, ultimately improving their command of the language. My hope is that Apprendre English Grammar will be a helpful guide for all readers seeking to enhance their understanding of English grammar.
