Synopsis

""Exercises in English: Selected and Classified for Criticism or Correction"" is a book written by Hugh Innes Strang and originally published in 1894. The book is a collection of exercises designed to help students improve their English language skills by identifying and correcting common errors in grammar, punctuation, and syntax. The exercises are classified according to their level of difficulty, from basic to advanced, and cover a wide range of topics such as sentence structure, verb tenses, and word usage. Each exercise is accompanied by a set of instructions and examples to help students understand the concepts being taught. The book is intended for use by students, teachers, and anyone else who wants to improve their English language skills. Despite its age, the book remains a valuable resource for anyone seeking to improve their writing and communication skills in English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

My attention was first called to this book by the mere mention of its title in the A cademy, Having long been in search of a good book of the kind for myself, and for many other teachers who had consulted me, I procured a copy; and the result was that I at once urged upon my friends, Messrs, D, C, Heath fir C?., its republication in this country, with a confident assurance that it would furnish a valuable aid in the teaching of English just where such aid is most needed, that is, in the practical test and application of those rules of right usage which are taught so much too much, yet so little verified and applied, in the habitual school-teaching. Being thus in a certain sense responsible for the book, I could not deny the duty of saying a word in its behalf; yet the authors own preface is so clear and so sufficient, with regard to its purpose and its right use, that he has left nothing for me to say. Teachers who will examine it will not, I think, need the assurance of the preface to the fifth edition, that it is fitted for wide usefulness in many schools. I ndeed, one of its chief recommendations is that it is adapted to use with any English grammar, or without any at all; and that, within quite an extensive range of skilfully shaped exercises, suited for different grades, it appeals always to the intelligent judgment, without reference to any given rule. If this word from me, who have now for many years felt the want of just such a help for myself and for others, should contribute to secure even the examination of this little book, I should feel I had done, vicariously, a real service to what I regard as in itself the most difficult, and in its results usually the most unsatisfactory, branch of school work.
