This work contains a combination of writing and grammar designed to provide a thorough study of English syntax. The book assumes that readers are familiar with basic grammatical terms such as 'noun,' 'subject,' and 'clause' and reviews terminology that may be less familiar, such as 'gerund' and 'object complement.' The authors go on to discuss the idiomatic options and limits of English.
