English grammar from an omniscient native speaker's perspective
Description
Book Introduction
"Visible English Grammar" is an attempt to clearly resolve the numerous questions remaining in English grammar, one by one, within a historical context and cognitive thought structure, and it is a book that reconstructs the thought flow in native speakers' sentences like a puzzle.
Why "Visible English Grammar"? English grammar is comprised of patterns that aren't readily apparent.
Native speakers naturally acquire these patterns as they grow, but learners are only exposed to fragmentary rules and cannot grasp the overall structure, so they feel that grammar is like a puzzle.
Difficult issues that were not clearly explained in existing grammar books, such as articles, prepositions, countable/uncountable, and inversion structures, were newly solved within the context of the history of language and the functioning of the human brain.
This book solves these grammatical puzzles one by one using clues based on the history of language and brain science, guiding readers to become their own detectives and reach their own conclusions.
If you follow the clues left in each chapter, you will soon find yourself approaching the grammatical intuition of a native speaker.
