Key to the Exercises for Writing, Contained in the Institutes of English Grammar: Designed for the Aid of Teachers and Private Learners (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Key to the Exercises for Writing, Contained in the Institutes of English Grammar: Designed for the Aid of Teachers and Private Learners

It is manifest, that exercises either too easy or too difficult, must defeat their own purpose. It was therefore judged expedient, to divide the examples of false con struction into two parts, and to place the greater number of them under the rules of syntax, to be corrected orally according to formules given. A Key to this portion of the false syntax, is published With the Grammar; that the pupil, when he cannot ascertain the error for himself, may have access to the right construction, and be enabled clearly to state the proper correction, and the reason for it. The followmg Key being adapted to the exercises which are to be written out by the learner, should not be put into the hands of the schoolboy. It is designed merely to aid the teacher in correcting the written essays of his pupils, and to give the private learner the satisfaction of knowing when he is right. If the Grammar be used by any teacher who is not familiar With the subject, to him the Key Will be indispensably necessary.
