HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

F irst, browse the book to familiarize yourself with its contents. Then, when

questions come up, use the table of contents to find answers. Each entry has an

index number. Related subjects appear near each other or are mentioned in a
cross-reference like this: see section 8.0, Nouns.

I know many readers like to dip and skim for pleasure, so I’ve written this
book so you can open to any page, read for a few minutes, and go away with a

little nugget of information. Of course, you can read the whole thing straight

through, too, if that’s your style. I don’t judge.
To make everything easier to understand, I’ve included example sentences,

lists and charts, and a glossary explaining some of the specialized language of
grammar and linguistics.
