PDF For English Prepositions Explained: Revised edition

By Seth Lindstromberg
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
Pages: 286, Date: 2010-08-11
ISBN-10 : 9027211744, 5.5 MB's | PDF

This completely revised and expanded edition of English Prepositions Explained (EPE), originally published in 1998, covers approximately 100 simple, compound, and phrasal English prepositions of space and time – with the focus being on short prepositions such as at, by, in, and on.

Its target readership includes teachers of ESOL, pre-service translators and interpreters, undergraduates in English linguistics programs, studious advanced learners and users of English, and anyone who is inquisitive about the English language.

The overall aim is to explain how and why meaning changes when one preposition is swapped for another in the same context. While retaining most of the structure of the original, this edition says more about more prepositions. It includes many more figures – virtually all new.

The exposition draws on recent research, and is substantially founded on evidence from digitalized corpora, including frequency data. EPE gives information and insights that will not be found in dictionaries and grammar handbooks.

Grammar Rules! for Students, Parents, & Teachers: a straightforward approach to basic English Grammar and writing skills


By : Mary S. Schatz
Publisher: Garlic Press Date: 2007, Pages: 251
Size: 4.12 Mb Format: PDF Quality: Good, readable

This book for students, parents and teachers grew out of the author's frustration while she corrected college students' philosophy papers. The papers were full of grammatical errors. When she pointed out that a sentence needed a verb to be complete, a typical response was "What's a verb?" She wrote this book to teach basic grammar concepts and show how they are applied in correct writing

The book has 40 units. Each unit has four parts. The first section of each unit introduces the parts of speech and teaches students how to recognize them. The purpose of this is to make it possible for students to understand the vocabulary of grammar so that they can understand the teacher's corrections.

(You can't correct a sentence fragment by adding a predicate if you've no idea what a predicate is.)
The second part of each unit, mechanics, explains a rule or common error associated with the part of speech just taught. The issues chosen reinforce what was learned in the first section while addressing errors commonly found in student writing and the SAT II writing test.

The third part, diagramming, shows students the structure of the English language and provides an ongoing review of the parts of speech that have been learned.

The last section, proofreading, reviews all the skills learned so far and teaches students to examine their work for errors. The ultimate goal of these grammar exercises is correct writing and effective proofreading. As a former English teacher, I am convinced that this is a much-needed book that makes it easy to learn with its straightforward approach and user-friendly exercises.

By : Scott G. Paris and Steven A. Stahl
Publisher: Lawrence Erlbaum Date: 2005, Pages: 439
Size: 20.79 Mb Format: PDF, Quality: Good, readable, OCRed

Originating in a recent CIERA conference held at the University of Michigan, this book brings together the nation's most distinguished researchers to examine how readers understand text and how comprehension is assessed. The first part provides both national and historical contexts for the study of reading comprehension

The second part examines how vocabulary, motivation, and expertise influence comprehension, and it includes analyses of the developmental course and correlates of comprehension.

Chapters in the third part consider how schools focus on comprehension for instruction and assessment.
The fourth part includes chapters on large-scale assessment that analyze how test formats and psychometric characteristics influence measures of reading comprehension.

At the end of each part is a commentary--written by an expert--that reviews the chapters, critiques the main points, and synthesizes critical issues.
