Excerpt from The Child's Grammar: First Lessons in Language
This book is what its title implies, a Child's Grammar. It was written for the children, not for grammarians and critical scholars of the language. Its chief aim is not to propose new principles, but to simplify and make easy such as are already known, and adapt them to the capaci ties of young pupils. The effort has also been made by means of pictures and various novel devices to awaken and sustain the interest of the pupil and relieve the study of much of its tediousness.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fresh and engaging approach to the study of grammar, designed specifically for young learners. The author, recognizing that children often find grammar tedious, utilizes pictures, novel devices, and familiar language to make the subject matter interesting and accessible. Rather than focusing on complex poetic quotations or challenging literary works, the author believes that children should first explore the grammatical structure of their own vocabulary. Through a series of carefully crafted lessons, the book introduces the fundamental parts of speech, such as nouns, adjectives, verbs, and adverbs, and explores their functions within sentences. The author presents these concepts in a clear and engaging manner, encouraging young learners to think critically about how words interact to create meaning. The bookââ â¢s focus on a child-centric approach to language acquisition, emphasizing the importance of understanding the words children use naturally, aligns with the broader shift in educational practices during the late 19th century. This book stands as a testament to the authorââ â¢s belief that grammar is a vibrant and dynamic force, not a rigid set of rules, and that understanding its principles is key to unlocking the beauty and power of language. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
