The Telegraph Bookshop | Gwynne's Grammar by N M Gwynne (9780091951450)
See inside The following is an extract from this title: Chapter Two A Note of Encouragement Here is a step-by-step proof (yes, a proof that really is valid!) Step one. Step two. Step three. Step four. Step five. In summary of the proof: grammar is the science of using words rightly, leading to thinking rightly, leading to deciding rightly, without which – as both common sense and experience show – happiness is impossible. Nor does the importance of grammar stop there. Step one. Step two. Step three. Step four. Step five. Step six. Step seven. Step eight. Step nine.

Welcome to HyperGrammar electronic grammar course at the University of Ottawa's Writing Centre. This course covers approximately the same ground as our English department's ENG 1320 Grammar course. The content of HyperGrammar is the result of the collaborative work of the four instructors who were teaching the course in Fall 1993: Heather MacFadyen, David Megginson, Frances Peck, and Dorothy Turner. David Megginson was then responsible for editing the grammar and exercises and for converting them to SGML. This package is designed to allow users a great deal of freedom and creativity as they read about grammar. This package is currently under construction!

The Telegraph | The glamour of grammar: an object lesson
Gwynne’s little blue bomb is being expanded and republished (with a purple cover) to meet the growing appetite for grammatical knowledge. His grammar slot on Radio 5’s Up All Night has become one of the BBC’s most popular phone-ins. Two teachers from St George’s Church of England Foundation School, Battersea, who joined his Sunday seminar were so fired up by it that they persuaded their head teacher to let him address their Year Six pupils. “Those two teachers absolutely drank it in,” he told me afterwards. It is astonishing that an elderly former businessman who has never been to teacher training college, worn an academic gown or taught in a school should be creating such a commotion. “Michael Gove has a copy of my Grammar,” Gwynne says. The convergence of the pedagogues could be interesting. “They teach nothing useful and peddle a lot of perverse child psychology,” he says. Though many adults over 60 have experienced the Gwynne approach to teaching, no teachers have.

Question words Questions about the subject When we ask questions about the subject of a sentence, the word order in the question and the answer is the same: Ben designed this house. Who designed this house? X Who did build this house? / Who built this house? • We use what, who, which, whose and how many in-questions about the subject. Questions about the object Questions about the object need an auxiliary verb (do, have, is, etc.) before the subject: Wren designed this cathedral. What did Wren design? • We use what, which, who, whose, when, where, how often, etc. in questions about the object.X Which cathedral Wren built? Here is a summary of question words with examples: Position of prepositions • Note the change in the position of a preposition in questions about the object: I gave the book to John, becomes: Who did you give the book to? She sent the letter from , becomes: Where did she send the letter from? What or which? We use what when the choice is open. What colour do you like?
