Teaching basic grammatical analysis through inquiry rather than memorization, this popular textbook encourages students to use their intuitive knowledge of language to make their own discoveries about the grammatical categories add principles of the grammar of English. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book strikes a balance between basic descriptive grammar and syntactic theory, introducing students not only to the structure of English, but also in some cases to \u003ci\u003ewhy\u003c\/i\u003e English has the structure it does. Along the way, students discover how English has changed over time, and how it varies from speech community to speech community. Student-friendly chapters contain numerous examples drawn from different varieties of American English, which illustrate how English grammar is a dynamic system: perceptions of one variety as ‘better’ or ‘more correct’ than another, and notions of ‘standard’ and ‘non-standard’ English are socially constructed rather than based on linguistic fact. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition is fully updated with new examples, new text excerpts from a diverse range of written genres and authors, and completely revised chapters and exercises. The book also includes an entirely new final capstone chapter designed to encourage students to apply what they have learned with more challenging practice exercises. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNavigating English Grammar: A Guide to Analyzing Real Language, Second Edition \u003c\/i\u003eis an excellent textbook for undergraduate courses in English grammar, English linguistics, and language education. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDedication v\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments xvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 What is Grammar and How Do We Study It? 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhat is English?
