of English. It is written for: UK teachers of English in primary and
secondary schools; teachers of modern foreign languages; teachers of
English as a foreign, second, or additional language
The book is in three parts. Part A `Overview' gives a basic introduction to
the structure of English, using simple examples and explanations.
Considerable use is made of diagrams. Part B, `The details' takes the
reader through all the main elements of English in more detail. There are
chapters devoted to words, phrases, clauses, and sentences. Part C is a
reference section. The main feature is a 50-page glossary giving clear
explanations of all the technical terms a teacher is likely to need when
handling grammar. Grammar is complex. It is often difficult to explain one
concept unless the reader already understands another. For this reason the
three parts of the book are carefully cross-referenced using clearly marked
`See also' boxes. Together with the many charts and diagrams, these ensure
that the clearest possible explanations are instantly available to the
reader.

consolidate their knowledge. Its main features are: a 3-part structure to

terms in the renewed Primary National Strategy; a glossary of over 175
terms from `absolute' to `zero relative'; clear and detailed
cross-referencing; essential reading for teachers of English as an
additional or foreign language; more than 100 clear and memorable diagrams
and tables to show how grammar works; a dedicated website linked to the
book, with practice exercises and grammar downloads; hundreds of examples
from real-life English.
