ENGLISH PAGE
DAVIDAPPLEYARD.COM
Here you'll find some key English learning points and handy references in easily manageable, interlinked compartments. Knowing that for most people time is of the essence, the author has attempted to fast-track users to the core subject matter and teach by example rather than lengthy explanation. This should be of particular benefit to those of you preparing to sit exams. These pages are just part of a network of sites pieced together to present English in its cultural context. By helping students of any level put their skills to some kind of practical use (like surfing the Net, gathering world news, planning overseas trips, reading the classics, gleaning new knowledge, etc.), the author hopes to encourage them to pursue the subject well beyond what is taught in most schools. You can also submit your questions and comments. COMMON ERRORS IN ENGLISH  LEO NETWORK

The home page consists of several headings. Each heading has an extensive dropdown menu of items. Headings include: Words & Sentences; Paragraphs; Essays & Research Papers; Ask Grammar, Quizzes, Search Devices; and Peripherals & PowerPoints. The INDEX is huge and includes references to both the Guide to Grammar and Writing and Principles of Composition. It does not include references to the Interactive Quizzes or to the Grammarlogs (posted responses to ASK GRAMMAR queries). Frequently Asked Questions page and the Guide's Search Engine will also help you find help on grammatical issues, tips on composition, and advice on English usage. The Guide to Grammar and Writing is sponsored by the Capital Community College Foundation. (reviewed here) ENGLISH GRAMMAR SECRETS
Caroline and Pearson Brown give you their collection of grammar lessons. They allow you to use these English grammar lessons for self study or to consolidate your lessons with your teacher. There is absolutely nothing to pay but they ask you to support them by buying their books and CDs in the future. They recommend that you read the grammar explanation on the first page of the lesson and then do the exercises, thinking all the time about the rules in the grammar explanation. Remember that learning grammar is only one part of learning a language. So don't be obsessed by it! Learning examples that will help you when you speak or write is the best way to learn. WIKIPEDIA
This is a list of words and phrases having differing meanings in British and American English. Asterisked (*) meanings, though found chiefly in the specified region, have also some currency in the other dialect; other definitions may be recognised by the other as Briticisms or Americanisms respectively. Additional usage notes are provided when useful. Certain words are limited to regional or specific dialect use in either usage. They will, however, be recognised and understood by most native English speakers in the country concerned. These are marked with their usual area of use.
