The
Oxford English Grammar and
Grammar is an essential part of a
language. Mastering English grammar is a must for everybody who wants to
communicate in English fluently. There are a lot of books in the bookstores
where learners can buy to study grammar. When I was a university student, I
bought English Grammar in Use - a self study reference and practice book for
intermediate students of English. It was around 17 years ago. When I review
grammar books that are suitable for intermediate level courses, I still see that
Raymond Murphy's books are still relevant.
Another book that I should recommend to you is The Oxford English Grammar. The
author of the book is Sydney Greenbaum. Oxford is a great name in the ears of
English learners. When we hear this name we will remember Oxford Advanced
Learner's Dictionary, The New Oxford Picture Dictionary and various other
dictionaries.
English Grammar Practice
Practicing grammar every day is essential for
beginning English learners to master this
international language. There are a few steps
that you need to do before trying to answer
quizzes or exercises provided in this
Englishland's website: Study the grammar rules:
Before starting to answer a number of grammar exercises provided in the
web-pages of this website, you need to study the rules related to each topic
that I discuss here. For example, if you want to answer quiz on how much and
how many, you need to know the chapter in Grammar text books that discuss
Countable and Uncountable (non-count) nouns. If you have read the topic,
carefully analyze the sentences, phrases and patterns of every component
that composed a sentence. Answer the sample exercises
After you have studied the grammar rules, try to answer questions or
exercises provided by the grammar books in later pages. If you use English
Grammar in Use (written by Raymond Murphy) then the exercises are presented on
right hand pages. For elementary level, the answer keys are provided at the
back pages of the book.
Grammar Exercises
Englishland has provided free English grammar exercises since 2004. Most of the
grammar lessons that we discuss here are for basic levels. English grammar is
important especially to those who are serious in mastering this international
language. Every student of English who enters this website will see that we have
a lot of English learning materials in each category ranging from conversation
to reading comprehension and from TOEIC preparation to TOEFL preparation. In all
of the lessons, English grammar rules have always been included. So, while you
study TOEFL preparation, you also study the grammar rules. You will have to deal
with verbs, phrases, tenses and nouns.
English Grammar Online
Englishland has provided various grammar
explanation and exercises through her online service since 2004. Previously the
grammar quizzes were prepared using Macromedia Flash technology for TOEIC test
questions. Unfortunately, such grammar exercises cannot be read or indexed by
search engine. So, they could not easily be found by learners of English on the
internet.
To improve our service to students of English language, we change our test
platform from Flash based into Java Script based using Hot Potato software. We
believe that the English Grammar Practice
which we present in this website can now be indexed easily by the search
engines.
Online English Grammar test questions that have been developed here have been
adapted to meet the demand of most of our test takers who are in the basic and
elementary levels. But we don't close the possibilities of presenting more
difficult grammar exercises in the future.

Reading
English Magazine
Reading English magazines is good to improve our
English ability. By reading we can find many new words that we are not familiar
with. There are many free magazines that we can download from the internet. We
can also order new ones from English publishers. These magazines contain
various articles ranging from music, culture to politics and economics.
English magazine such as
Cool English is published
in Russia. It is good for young adults. Some of the old editions of Cool
English can be downloaded from
Ebookee by typing the magazine's name.
Learning English by Blogging
Learning English does not always have to do with attending
English classes, or reading grammar books. We can study English through many
ways. We can chat with people on the internet, we can take free English course
that are available on the internet. Or we can write blogs. When we blog, we
should not have to worry about grammar or spelling. We just need to write short
articles. First we can use word processor such as Microsoft Word. If we make
mistakes in spelling or grammar, it will inform us by showing red or green
underlines on a word or sentences.
