Sinopsis

Now and then it has been deemed best to omit explanations, and to withhold personal preferences, in order that the student may, by actual contact with the sources of grammatical laws, discover for himself the better way in regarding given data.áIt is not the grammarianâÇÖs business to 'correct:' it is simply to record and to arrange the usages of language, and to point the way to the arbiters of usage in all disputed cases. Free expression within the lines of good usage should have widest range.áIt has been our aim to make a grammar of as wide a scope as is consistent with the proper definition of the word. Therefore, in addition to recording and classifying the facts of language, we have endeavored to attain two other objects, to cultivate mental skill and power, and to induce the student to prosecute further studies in this field.áIt is not supposable that in so delicate and difficult an undertaking there should be an entire freedom from errors and oversights.áWe shall gratefully accept any assistance in helping to correct mistakes.
