Context-free grammar

you can do that can be the difference between having a successful professional career in any field and not even getting in the door for an interview? You would probably take it pretty seriously and want to know what to do. Now what if I told you that thing is just having good grammar? For some reason, many people now seem to place less value on good grammar. Good grammar is just as important for succeeding in a career as well as getting one, and it is very important to do whatever is necessary to develop it. To say good grammar is important in your professional life and personal life is an understatement. Grammar will follow you throughout your life and be there to either open doors for you or slam them shut depending on your capabilities.

The application of grammatical rules is really how one coherently conveys a message to their audience -- after all, grammar itself is what allows speakers to understand one another. The ability to “manipulate” these rules, so to speak, may be what Barbery subsequently means by “applying the rules of grammar skillfully” -- the application of different grammatical rules and processes can…

I enrolled in WRTG 101 because I was advised it was a requirement for my degree in Management Studies. To be completely honest, it was a class I thought I would struggle greatly in; however, in retrospect, I am glad I took the opportunity to enroll. Even though I usually try to pay attention to the way I structure my sentences and grammar, I had no confidence in my writing skills. Whilst I grew up speaking and writing English in Jamaica, it was a different style of English than that used here in…

Good grammar is like personal hygiene-you can ignore it if you want, but don't be surprised when people draw their conclusions.” This quote is by the author Evelyn Beatrice Hall.
