A plain and practically lucid English grammar! This is what came into my mind when I was conceptualizing this book.

So: APPLE Grammar has come to fruition.

The book, though enlightening and having passionate cataloging, contains plain notes of how to treat every aspect of grammar to make it understandable and functional when dealing with our verbal communication.

I want to share with all students that English is a thrilling language if we treat each of its part and grammar component meticulously.

It is like mathematics or science or any other disciplines. Every structure and arrangement of words has bases and explanations. That if we scrutinize and dig deeper into the nature of the language, we can attest a lot of things—possibly, higher responsiveness and the art of using it. For one thing, English is not at all irrational without any reasons.

If it has irregularities, these must be taken down and learned by rote to have constant standing in terms of how we deal every problem we stumble upon. And this book is what I have noted down for years as a literary writer and ESL teacher.

English grammar descried by me, the book has been written based on the need of English teachers who are aware of the principles, sense, and characteristics—of the language, but not very in-depth and chock-full. Thus, many English teachers bring in some grammar rules, but they fall short to teach to which periphery the students have to apply the rules—and what other ways are likely or germane. It means that an exceptional rule if there is must be taught to the students. And this book does.

I have observed this vacuity since I was a high school student. And this has been a difficulty to me since I started to write poems and short stories.

Even how intelligent a student is if he/she is badly informed about the rules of grammar, there is no way that he/she can write naturally well. He/she needs to base his/her writings or oral point on the formalized and customary grammar of the English language.

I find English irresistible. Thus, I want to make everyone love it as well.

A lot of editing has been done just for the book to have superb contents. That is because in my first book, the giving of every concept is too technical and I resorted to deep cataloging.

Outlining over and over has been made to put the presentation of concepts in order. That is to uphold the students’ learning to arrive at the understanding and using of the English grammar productively and inventively.

The book is not claimed by me to be just the thing because I still consider changes as time rolls on: I always think the best approach to impart my knowledge to all students who are serious about learning the grammar of the English language.

Bring APPLE Grammar into play in its entirety and internalize what I have kept count of here.
