This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Language Its Grammatical and Logical Principles In the following pages an attempt has been made to discuss the principles grammatical and logical, of the English Language. In Part I., the discussions are confined to Forms of Expression. There are in our language certain generic forms which are here classified under the heads of Word-forms, Phrase-forms, and Clause-forms, in some one of which as a fixed organic structure of language, thought is always embodied. These generic forms, or moulds of thought, are moreover the same, substantially, in organic form and character, in all languages. Hence, in these organic verbal structures, all written thought, whether ancient or modern, finds its constant expression. While, therefore, a knowledge of these forms is indispensable to a clear understanding of the syntactical structure of the English, and to the philosophy of verbal combination generally in our tongue, such knowledge becomes of immense value, the moment the pupil enters upon the study of the syntax of a foreign language; for the leading grammatical principles, here discussed, are the same in all tongues.

Download or read book The English Language and Its Grammar Classic Reprint written by Irene M. Mead and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Language and Its Grammar In view of such a necessity in high and normal schools, the author combines in this book the history and derivation of English forms of speech with an analysis of the language and its functions. If the technical terms (which are employed because only by them can the science of language he presented) are mastered in the beginning, the student will find no difficulty in following the author's method to'the end. It will be easy to trace the logical consistency of the language with itself, and the harmony of its develop ment, which together give our glorious English tongue its expansive and expressive power. It will also be ap parent how this language has been able to subordinate all the accidents of an increasing vocabulary to the normal functions of a generous and flexible continuity of life. While this book is especially designed for normal and training schools and teacher-training classes in high schools, it is hoped that it will be found. Valuable as a means of self-help to large numbers of teachers who are striving to secure a better preparation for their work. It is thought that it is also well adapted for use in the summer schools which are now so prominent a fea ture of the educational work of the country.

Download or read book A New English Grammar Vol 1 written by Henry Sweet and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New English Grammar: Logical and Historical - Volume One is a text authored by Henry Sweet, a doctor, lawyer, author, and editor, as well as a one-time president of the Philological Society. This text is a reference guide and textbook for proper usage of the English language. A New English Grammar assumes a descriptivist perspective towards proper language usage, in that author Henry Sweet focus more energy into describing how English is properly used than recommending one usage as more correct than another. The book takes an almost scientific approach, and is remarkable in its thoroughness. The text begins with an introduction in which the various parts of speech are detailed. From there, Sweet examines the correct usage of said parts, looks into the history of the English language, presents a detailed chapter on phonology, and concludes the book with a lengthy section about accidence. Henry Sweet was a brilliant linguist, and this attribute comes across quite clearly while reading A New English Grammar. His book is a detailed and thorough analysis of the English language, and one that could serve to improve the grammar skills of any reader, from the new language learner to the experienced wordsmith. The explanations of sometimes complex grammatical rules are presented clearly, and provided examples serve to simplify the learning process. Readers interested in a textbook on the proper usage of the English language would be wise to consider Henry Sweet's A New English Grammar: Logical and Historical - Volume One. It is a professionally written and clearly explained work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Language: Its Grammar, History and Literature It is hoped that the book will prove useful in high schools, academies, and seminaries, as well as to candidates for teachers' examinations and civil service examinations. The various topics have been prepared upon the assumption that the stu dent has already studied a part of the work in an elementary form. The most salient features of the language have been de scribed, and minor details have been left for the teacher to fill in as needed. The utmost clearness and simplicity have been the aim of the writer, and he has been obliged to sacrifice many interesting details to this aim. The study of English grammar is necessarily becoming more and more historical. '1' here are scores of in ections and constructions and idioms which cannot be truly or adequately explained without a reference to the past states of the language, to the time when it was a synthetic or in ected language, like German or Latin.

Clear the work, as far as practicable, of any admixt ure of the other sciences. Grammar is grammar. Rhetoric has its own sphere; so, also, has logic. All attempts to consider the three together will end in confusion. No two sciences can be successfully taught from one text -book. In the present work the principles of rhetoric and logic will not be discussed, ex cept in so far as those principles lie distinctly within the sphere of Grammar. Having said thus much, by way of preface, as to the gen eral scope of the work here presented to the public, I leave the merits of the book to the discrimination of those to whom it is more particularly addressed. I sincerely trust that the teachers of our country may find the work to be, in some measure at least, the realization of the author's hope and purpose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The General Principles of Language: Or, the Philosophy of Grammar The study of Grammar has been so constantly pursued in a manner almost purely mechanical, that both teachers and pupils seem to have generally forgotten that any theory or philosophical basis can exist on which its great general principles arc founded. It is true that the usage of each particular language will always guide and govern the practice of that language; but besides this, the facts that words represent ideas, and that the connexions between ideas in the mind must be indicated by corresponding connexions in the words, afford a common basis for the great general rules which are identical in all languages. Tho following treatise is an attempt to explain and illustrate these general principles - to show how they originate in the operations of the mind, and to what extent they are necessarily identical in all languages. It is not intended to introduce these considerations to the exclusion of the practical rules which operate in immediate connexion with the usage of any language, but rather to explain, so far as possible, the origin of these rules, and thereby afford a more accurate and precise means of examining the analysis of sentences, the nature of words, and their syntactical arrangement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Language and English Grammar: An Historical Study of the Sources, Development, and Analogies of the Language and of the Principles Governing Its Usages Much of what is contained in the following pages was first written for purposes of private instruction, and without any View to publication but as one chapter was added after another, it began to be thought that some portions might interest a larger class of readers. There are many persons who would be glad to know more about the English language than can be gained from the formal routine of the public schools, who, nevertheless, are unable to procure and read the great number of valuable works on the subject that have issued from the press within a period of fifty years. Such persons are in a position to appreciate a work taking a somewhat wider view than the common text-books, and presenting some of the more familiar results of modern philology. There are two classes for whom this book is not intended. The first are those who are already familiar with all the results of past labors, and who, therefore, can find nothing here to add to their present ample stores of knowledge, there being no claim to original discovery or invention. The second class are those who neither know or care anything about the history or philology of their native tongue. Between these extremes is the large and important class who already know something and desire to know more.
