English 2810a: English Grammar (Spring 2014)
Posted: December 25, 2013 Filed under: Current-Interest, spring-2014 | Tags: courses, english 2810, grammar, pedagogy, spring-2014, syllabus Leave a comment »English 2810 Grammar is a technical course in the form and structure of the English language. Our focus will be descriptive rather than prescriptive. Students will learn how the language works in actual practice rather than how people think it ought to be spoken or written.
In addition to its intrinsic interest, the study of descriptive grammar can be useful for anybody interested in working with the English language, as it provides a framework and set of terms for understanding how the language works.
