"In Navigating English Grammar, Second Edition, authors Anne Loback and Kristin Denham offer an insightful, approachable, and captivatingly written introduction to the linguistic study of English grammar. The study of grammar is a foundational element of an education in linguistics, yet many students who take a first course in grammar will find that their understanding of how grammar functions in their own language may be misguided or mistaken. By guiding the students through their assumptions about language function through a question-based method, this valuable textbook helps drive students towards their own discoveries about the mechanisms and rules of English grammar."-- What is grammar and how do we study it? -- Nouns -- Noun phrases -- Verbs -- Verb phrases -- The clause -- Adjectives -- Adverbs -- Prepositions and particles -- Coordination and subordination -- More on modification -- Navigating and analyzing: review.
