Riassunto

Excerpt from The Little Grammar

To say that is to say nothing new. The new thing 18 to try to make a grammar that will set forth only those laws of good usage that are really necessary as a guide to one who is looking forward as he expresses himself, or backward as he passes judgment upon what he has said. Such a book would be a functional grammar, for it would set forth the minimum essentials of grammar, only those grammar facts that have a function, -omitting all those that are merely interesting to a mature student of language. This book makes that attempt.

The author is conscious of breaking away from two well established traditions. First, the series of language books usually provided for children contains all the materials for language, composition, and, to a certain extent, literary studies. This involves the use of two or three volumes. Second, the books are large three or four hundred pages to the volume.
