This book is designed for those students whose primary interest is learning
about the structures of written English rather than the methodology of a
particular grammatical model. Consequently, there are no discussions of the
goals of the traditionalists, structuralists, tagmemicists, stratificationalists,
generative-transformationalists, Neo-Firthians, or others who have made
important contributions to the study of language during this century. Each
chapter describes some aspect of English, and the discussions are drawn
eclectically from various grammatical models.
The book includes topics ranging from simple sentence structures to the
more complex. It begins with the Subject-Verb-Object structure and
proceeds to show how it may be expanded with optional adverbials,
auxiliary verbs, and various kinds of modifiers. Finally, such structures as
noun clauses, gerund and infinitive phrases, and compound constructions
are considered. In addition to providing descriptions of these structures, the
book tries to explain why we use them and why one arrangement may be
better than another. Although the length of the book has been deliberately
kept short, the most important structures in English are included, most of
them in some detail.
It is assumed that the users of this book have a dual interest: to learn about
English sentence structure and to acquire enough knowledge to enable them
to apply this material. Some will be interested in studying grammar as an
aid to understanding literature and as a tool for analyzing style. Others will
study it for its applications to their writing or to the teaching of reading and
composition. Still others who are planning to study linguistics as a discipline
in itself need an understanding of the structure of English as background for
more advanced work. Throughout, it is assumed that the readers have a
dual interest, not just a desire to learn grammar for itself.
