What kind of grammar study the english students?

Question

I'm italian girl, I have one curiosity

Answer 1

My best advice is to begin with a children's grammar book. It will give you a lot of practice in basic sentence structure and the parts of speech. Begin with a good, solid 2nd grade book. One I can recommend is a series by a company called Rod and Staff. I use it with students at all levels. Even much older students need to begin at an elementary level and just keep going, level by level until English grammar seems simple. You can call that publisher at 606-522 4348. Believe me, even the 2nd grade book teaches more grammar than most English speaking adults know. But there are many good books out there. Just start with a very easy beginning book just as I would if I wanted to learn Italian.

Answer 2

Well, if you mean here on R&S, I hope I do. I know my grammar and spelling are bad (almost wrote is), but it is the message one is trying to convey that is important. True, grammar and spelling help get the point across easier and make it easier to be taken seriously. Spell check does not work all the time and sometimes I try to cut and paste for the reasons above. Yet I can get pressed for time and just write as best I can so the person can recieve a good answer which should not be confused with a scholarly work. My Father, who only has a 6th grade education, can barely write and yet when he does I do not write him back or correct him. He deserves respect and is quite smart on spiritual matters and other areas as well. Plus there are few pieces of equipment he cannot operate. We of the College set could learn from his example. Only a fool passes up knowledge because of grammar and spelling.

Answer 3

Only ONE curiosity! You need to get a few more!
To answer your question, the English students, surprisingly, study English Grammar. But judging by some of the stuff one sees in Yahoo Answers, it may very well be Chinese Grammar!
But seriously, good luck to you.

Answer 4

Are you attempting to learn English? One of the difficulties is word order. Consider--in Spanish you would say un hombre loco. (a man crazy) but in English you would say a crazy man. As far as grammar, even though I've been a teacher and a writer one of my resources is Strunk and White. It's a small book something like a dictionary.
There are a couple of things that drive me crazy with people on web messages. One is not knowing the difference between "then" and "than". Non-words like agreeance (agreement), Incorrect use of there, their and they're, to, too, and two. Apostrophes used in plural nouns ("the next page is for writing note's). The apostrophe makes note possessive, as in (the note's quality is very good) If there is an apostrophy if needs something following that belongs to it.

Answer 5

Yes it is interesting how most European Languages require their students to study the grammar vigorously while students in England are not subjected to this. Maybe it may have something to do with the fact that in comparison English grammar is much simpler than its European counterparts. There are no complicated verb tenses, verb endings, problems with masculine/femine/neuter etc.
However I think most English students grasp an understanding of grammar vocabulary(participle,pronoun,clause)
while learning languages at school.

Answer 6

Not sure exactly what you are asking but when I was at school a very long time ago I didn't study any grammar I was just taught how to phrase my ideas a little better (although I am still trying to get it right)
