English Grammar For Dummiestion, 1st Edition

A few years ago, a magazine sponsored a contest for the comment most likely to end a conversation. The winning entry? / teach English grammar. Just throw that line out at a party. Everyone around you will clam up or start saying whom. Why does grammar make everyone nervous? As an English teacher, I have to take part of the blame. Some of us make a big deal out of grammar in our classrooms, drilling the parts of speech, clauses, and verbals until our students beg for mercy. Centuries ago when I was in elementary school — which, by the way, was called grammar school in those days for very good reasons — I had to diagram sentences. It's a wonder I ever learned to communicate at all by the time those lessons were over.
