Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book delves into the grammatical composition of the English language, primarily examining the functions of nouns and verbs. The author promotes a simplified understanding of grammar, arguing that its principles are based on the fundamental laws of nature and mutual agreement among its speakers. He presents a theory of language that reduces all words to just two general classes: nouns and verbs, which he then subdivides into pronouns, adjectives, and contractions. By investigating language through the lens of how things and actions are described, the author challenges traditional grammar and advocates for a more straightforward approach to understanding how language functions. This revised and expanded edition contains the author's latest linguistic insights, offering readers a comprehensive and thought-provoking analysis of the English language's grammatical structure. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
