Student’s English Grammar & Composition

Wren and Martin’s High School English Grammar & Composition is one of the most popular and widely used reference books on English Grammar. It not only helps the students to use the language, but also gives detailed information about the language.

Primary School English Grammar & Composition (PSEGC) and Middle School English Grammar & Composition (MSEGC) is a set of two books designed to be used as a prequel to the highly popular English grammar reference book, High School English Grammar & Composition. Both PSEGC and MSEGC provide ample guidance and practice in sentence building, correct usage, comprehension, composition and other related areas so as to equip the learners with the ability to communicate effectively in English.

The study of grammar aids the student to master his mother-tongue, but its chief function is to secure mental discipline. For the development of the intellectual powers, the capable teacher, well furnished with rational methods, will find this study superior to all others. It is a study in recognizing similarities, in distinguishing differences, in making abstractions, in forming generalizations. The object of Parts I.-IV. of this book is to contribute something to the science of elementary English grammar. Part V. treats of composition. The usual exercises in completing half-built sentences, in straightening out wrecks of sentences, in combining simple sentences into complex sentences, in expanding phrases into clauses, etc., will not be found therein. They have done quite enough towards fostering stupidity in our schools. The art of expression is acquired through steady practice, therefore pupils should write compositions not once a week, but during part of every period, about things which they understand. They should be taught good form in expression, and trained to correct their own exercises. This part of the work, though brief, will be found suggestive. Teachers and pupils have not been deprived of the pleasure and profit of an independent examination of the construction of the prose selections.

To understand and make the practical use of the grammatical rules is a challenge poised at various competitive exams. Students preparing for various competitive exams need elucidated grammar rules that are explained in a very easy and understandable language. Practical English Grammar & Composition is the hand book and an easy guide to learn English aimed at learning and improving knowledge of grammar and its applicability. In order to make the students conversant with the practical applicability of the grammar rules, sentences depicting the right usage are also given after the rules. A number of solved exercises are also given after the chapters that enable the students test their acquired knowledge. Word Powers section is a unique feature of the book that will play a crucial role in making the students ready to face the competitions ahead.
