Traditional grammar books give rules to remember and follow in order to make correct sentences. Real Grammar explains what the parts mean so that you can understand what people say and make sentences that are not only correct, but meaningful.
We use words and parts of words (grammar) because words have meaning, and we want to express our ideas clearly to communicate. With Real Grammar, we look at the meanings of these grammatical parts. These parts have very basic meanings that can often be used in a wide range of situations. Sometimes English sentences might seem strange, and you ask yourself “why?” When you know the basic meanings, why these grammatical parts are being used makes a lot more sense.
