Everything you wanted to know about appositives, and more! October 20, 2002 F. Mercer (Phoenix, NY United States) 54 out of 59 found this review helpful
I turn to Grammar for Dummies for a concise, easy-to-understand definition of any given part of speech, as well as for any usage questions/doubts I am having. I have found this book to be an extremely helpful reference for my adolescent language development grad class.
Totally Awesome Helper! April 27, 2004 Dan Blankenship (Lowell, IN USA) 31 out of 35 found this review helpful
This is a book that covers all those "little problem" areas in grammar. From when to use a semicolon to dealing with irregular plural possessives, this book is a must-have for anyone in need of grammar-help.I highly recommend this book to anyone thinking of buying it! I am a writer, and while my first novel was edited by others, I'd like to try editing my next one without an intitial edit job...this book is my only hope! :-)(...)
best book I've seen on this topic so far December 2, 2001 26 out of 32 found this review helpful
I haven't seen a better book on this topic. Very well-written with interesting examples. I use it often.
Invaluable reference for english students September 1, 2006 Ted Bell (Phoenix, Arizona) 15 out of 18 found this review helpful
A career change forced me to return to college. After almost 10 years since graduating from high school, I forgot a lot of the rules about English writing. English Grammar for Dummies helped to refresh my memory, as well teach me a few things that I did not learn from my high school english teacher. I was able to pass English 101 with an A (not as easy as it sounds when your instructor is published author and PhD in literature). I am taking English 102 this semester and will continue to refer to the Dummies book as frequently as the class text. I recommend this book for any student, or anyone who does formal writing on a regular basis.
