Description
Grammar Nonsense and What To Do about It by Andrew Walkley and Hugh Dellar is a thought-provoking exploration of the often-frustrating world of grammar. The authors argue that traditional approaches to teaching grammar can be restrictive, leading to a "straightjacket" that stifles creativity and understanding. Through engaging discussions on various grammatical topics, including the use of language and common pitfalls in teaching methods, Walkley and Dellar challenge readers to rethink their approach to grammar. Along the way, they offer practical suggestions for overcoming common obstacles and provide insight into how published materials are written. By questioning established rules and approaches, this book aims to empower educators and learners alike to break free from grammatical constraints and develop a more nuanced understanding of language.
